Tourism Operators Encouraged to Complete Country Fire Authority Module
The Country Fire Authority (CFA) has urged tourism operators across Australia to complete its specialised safety module to enhance preparedness against fire-related incidents.
The CFA module is designed to provide essential training and resources, enabling operators to effectively manage fire risks within their establishments and during outdoor activities.
By completing the module, tourism businesses can ensure they are better equipped to protect both guests and staff, as well as minimise potential disruptions caused by bushfires and other fire emergencies.
Industry experts highlight the increasing importance of fire safety training in the wake of recent bushfire seasons that have significantly impacted various regions across the country.
The CFA module covers a range of topics, including fire prevention strategies, emergency response protocols, and risk assessment techniques. Operators will also gain insights into the latest fire management practices and regulatory requirements.
“Completing the CFA module is a proactive step towards safeguarding our tourism industry,” said a representative from the Australian Tourism Industry Association. “It ensures that operators are not only compliant with safety standards but are also prepared to handle emergencies effectively.”
The CFA encourages all tourism operators, including those involved in accommodation, tours, and outdoor activities, to undertake this training promptly.
