Fire and Safety Australia

What Fire and Safety Australia does

Fire and Safety Australia (FSA) is an Australian Registered Training Organisation (RTO #22250) that delivers workplace safety training and on-site emergency response and medical services across all Australian states and territories. The company trains 50,000+ individuals per year across 150+ nationally accredited courses — spanning fire safety, first aid, emergency response and rescue, confined space, HAZMAT, ESI, forklift/EWP, driver training, GWO wind-energy modules, and work health and safety qualifications — with a projected 60,000+ learners in the current year. Its core customer base comprises mining, oil and gas, construction, and renewable energy operators running remote or high-risk worksites, supplemented by corporate, government, and individual enrolments via a publicly scheduled course calendar.

Beyond training, FSA operates an integrated medical and emergency response services arm that deploys AHPRA-registered paramedics, Emergency Services Officers (ESOs), Medical Emergency Services Officers (MESOs), and security personnel to remote client sites, supported by purpose-built 4WD ambulances, fire appliances, and remote telemedicine capabilities. This services division delivers 20,000+ paramedic/medic/ESO/communications shifts and 15,000+ medical and emergency response days annually, with roughly 70 dedicated medically trained staff deployed across 16 national projects and access to a 400+ relief talent pool. The technology stack includes live-fire training systems, Medisim medical simulation equipment, virtual-reality-based training delivery, and an axcelerate-powered learner portal, with delivery channels spanning 15 owned and partner-venue training facilities plus on-site deployment to client operations.

The business operates two revenue streams: (1) nationally accredited training delivered through facilities, on-site deployment, and online learning (quote-based pricing, no public disclosure); and (2) managed services for on-site medical, emergency response, industrial security, and equipment/fleet supply on a cost-plus consumables basis. FSA is privately held and founder-led by CEO Steve McLeod, has grown organically over 18+ years with no external funding rounds or M&A, and holds key partnerships including national training partner of the NSCA Foundation, emergency training partner of the WHS Foundation (WA), GWO accredited training provider status, and CITB/CTF approved provider status in South Australia and Western Australia.
