Ensuring the safety of personnel and the preparedness of industrial fire brigades is paramount in high-risk environments. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) sets standards that guide the formation, training, and operation of these essential emergency response teams through regulations like OSHA 1910.156 and national consensus standards such as NFPA 600 and NFPA 1081. Regular audits of training and equipment can play a pivotal role in not only maintaining compliance, but actual emergency response readiness. In this article, we'll explore the importance of conducting your own OSHA 1910.156 and NFPA 600 training and equipment audit.
Industrial facilities face unique and complex fire and chemical risks, and when emergencies strike, there’s no room for error. That’s why OSHA standards (1910.156 and 1910.120(q)) and NFPA guidelines mandate that qualified Incident Commanders (ICs) lead these critical responses.

Emergency response teams play a crucial role in ensuring workplace safety and preparedness. Establishing an effective emergency response team (ERT) training program is not only a best practice but is often a legal requirement. To assess the effectiveness of your ERT training program, it's essential to consider standards set by regulatory bodies such as the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). In this article, we delve into OSHA 1910.156(c)1 and NFPA 600 to identify potential gaps in your ERT training program.
