The Royal Cliff Beach Resort wants to be sure its staff is as good at putting out fires as it is pampering guests at the five-star hotel.
Pattaya’s Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Office hosted the Royal Cliff’s annual fire-prevention seminar June 11 at the Jomtien Beach resort. More than 80 employees were trained how to prevent fires and handle fire-fighting equipment should one break out.
Department chief Surapol Sawadvichien led the list of lecturers.
The morning focused on theory behind extinguishing fires, fire extinguisher maintenance, use of other equipment and care for fire victims.
The afternoon saw employees put their knowledge to use with hands-on demonstrations and simulations. Skill tests covered using fire extinguishers, hand signals to control water distribution and putting out cooking-gas leaks. The attendees were trained to not panic when facing a real situation.
