In Canada, building owners are legally responsible for the fire safety of their properties.
Our “Building Safety Fire Prevention Training” offers building owners and managers essential fire and life safety knowledge that will give them the confidence to perform a fire safety self-assessment on specific low-risk buildings for which they are responsible. Routine fire prevention assessment is an inexpensive form of preventive maintenance that is a sound asset protection strategy, increasing tenant safety, protecting your investment and decreasing building owners’ liability.
As a building owner or owner’s authorized agent, you should be aware of and appreciate the value of effective fire prevention. Fire inspections are part of the Fire Prevention Program overseen by your local Fire Department and Fire Safety Authority. A fire safety awareness and inspection program will result in fewer fires, fewer fire deaths and a significant reduction in business interruptions, occupant inconvenience and property losses due to fires. Fire Safety inspections and self-assessments will make your business, and community a safer place to live, work and play.
