Welcome to First Security Group's Health & Safety Division

In June 2005 First Security Group acquired First Aid & Safety Training Consultants (FAST) to form the nucleus of the Group’s Health & Safety Division. FAST was set up in 1999 and quickly became acknowledged as one of the best safety and security training providers in the UAE.

We are currently the Swimming Teachers Association (STA) Centre of Excellence for the Middle East, offering their UK HSC standard courses in first aid and water safety. The Dubai Municipality has advised that our Swimming Pool Safety course is the minimum acceptable standard required for leisure facilities, and our Fire Awareness Training courses are amongst the most popular fire training courses in Dubai.

What we offer

Health & Safety Division provides a comprehensive range of first aid, fire safety and occupational health and safety training courses, ranging from basic, introductory courses to specialised training that complies with internationally recognised statutory requirements. We also provide a range of swimming training, from introductory courses for babies to swimming instructor.

Though offering corporate services we are also the only training company in Dubai to offer a variety of open courses to the community. We also provide first line emergency support and ambulance services at a number of large events and numerous desert safaris in the region. While our client portfolio is too extensive to list here it includes premier corporate and industrial organisations, major hotel groups, government agencies, the military, schools, embassies and community groups.

Health & Safety Division currently trains more then 500 delegates each month. The division also has a purpose-built mobile fire training module designed for practical training on the correct use of fire extinguishers. This gives candidates hands-on experience in the use of a range of fire extinguishers.

The division's office and training facility are situated in the prestigious Dubai Tennis Stadium and a full programme of open courses, both daytime and evenings, is available to compliment our corporate courses. Our aim is to fully understand, meet and exceed the expectations of our clients in respect to quality, innovation, reliability and safety.
