The Ford Fiesta Zetec typically features a non-interference engine design. This means that in the event of a timing belt failure, the engine's pistons and valves will not collide, potentially preventing severe engine damage. However, it's always advisable to check the specific model year and engine type, as variations may exist. Regular maintenance of the timing belt is still crucial to avoid unexpected failures.

It is a NON Interference engine. The pistons have reliefs cut into them, in order to prevent damage if the belt snaps. Therefore if you snapped a belt the valves will not collide with the pistons. Source - A friend of mine that has been a Ford mechanic for 21 years.
