The importance of Annual Fire Safety Statement compliance
A property fire can be devastating and costly – resulting in structural damage, injuries and even loss of life. The Annual Fire Safety Statement (AFSS) serves as a critical document that confirms the safety of a building or structure. It’s not just a piece of paper; it’s a commitment to the safety of everyone who steps into your premises.
The AFSS outlines the operating conditions of various fire safety and egress measures in a building. It’s a comprehensive assessment by a competent fire safety practitioner, covering essential fire safety services and critical measures like fire pathways, travel paths, emergency and exit lights, and fire extinguisher enclosures.
The AFSS is mandatory; it must be submitted to the local council where the building is located. Failure to submit this vital document can result in infringement notices, penalties or even enforcement actions. But it’s not just about avoiding penalties; it’s about ensuring your building is safe from fire hazards.
