Overview
What this RAVS document does
A workplace fire can spread quickly and trap workers. A hiring client that configures this element wants to see that a contractor assesses fire risk, writes a fire prevention and preparedness plan, maintains fire extinguishers, and stores flammables correctly.
This document states your company's fire protection program in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: the fire risk assessment, the fire prevention and preparedness plan, fire extinguishers and suppression equipment, training, the classes of fire and matching extinguishers, storing flammables and explosives, and garbage control. It is written to Ontario regulations. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.

- Portable fire extinguishers selected, located, and inspected monthly

Practical guidance

- Inspect extinguishers monthly. The document states portable fire extinguishers are selected, located, and inspected monthly. A reviewer expects that monthly inspection.
- Hold a fire drill. The document states a fire drill is held at least once during each 12-month period. A reviewer expects that drill.
