Fire wardens provide a vital element of any organisations fire defence system. Their duties are recognised under the 2005 Safety Health and Welfare at Work Act where Section 11 of the Act states that employers are required to prepare and revise adequate emergency plans and procedures and provide the necessary measures for fire-fighting and the evacuation of the workplace.

Fire wardens are those staff members that would normally know the general layout of premises, the location and operation of fire-fighting /fire detection equipment such as fire extinguishers, hoses and break glass units) along with the location of emergency exits and assembly point outside of the building. One of the key roles of the fire warden is the safe and swift evacuation of their fellow employees and visitors to their place of business and carry out role call.
