A Fire safety plan is a document that provides information about the building’s fire alarm, fire protection, life safety and emergency systems. The Plan outlines the fire safety practices and response procedures for the building’s occupants and supervisory staff to follow in the event of a fire emergency.
Fire Safety Plans are required under the Ontario Fire Code in most buildings, outlining the legal requirements for the owner(s) and must be submitted and approved by the local Fire Department. Fire Safety Plans contain everything from building drawings, fire and life safety system resources to pertinent contact information. For property managers, Fire Safety Plans are an essential document that provides emergency procedures and responsibilities to individuals including building staff and occupants. The Fire Code requires all Plans be reviewed at intervals not greater than 12 months and updated as appropriate for changes to the building or organization that affect content or implementation of the plan. Substantive changes to the Fire Safety Plan are to be approved by Chief Fire Official.
