1. What is a Fire Safety Checklist?
A Fire safety checklist is the list of items to be checked, verified or inspected. Checklists allows us to ensure we don't forget any steps. Fire safety checklists are excellent tools used to inspect for potential risks and fire hazards that can be mitigated to avoid serious injuries, workplace deaths, and property loss.
What are the structural building materials?
- Are the walls, ceilings and floors, furniture, floor coverings and window treatments fire-resistant?
- Do they meet NFPA, state and federal codes?

- Is the local water supply adequate to meet the needs of the sprinkler system and emergency responders?
- Are there adequate, properly marked emergency exits?
- Are there firewalls and doors to prevent or slow the spread of fire from one area to the next?
