This November, the security and training company Flash Energi has developed a training plan for its staff in fire protection. The company explained to Maspalomas24H that as a general objective, "in each basic training, students acquire the skills and abilities necessary to act efficiently in the event of a fire and to be able to adequately manage the primary extinction of this incident until the emergency services arrive."
As a specific objective, a safety instructor, before taking action, ensures that students learn the general theoretical framework on fires and safety, the different extinguishing techniques, know the procedures to avoid risky situations and know how to eliminate them safely. "By meeting these objectives, we manage to train qualified personnel for emergency situations, always working as a team."
Fires in hotels, especially in tourist destinations such as Maspalomas, are a cause for concern for both tourists and local authorities. Although there are no detailed and up-to-date statistics on the frequency of these incidents specifically in Maspalomas, the possible causes are usually related to electrical faults or problems with gas installations.
