Fire Upgrade Requirements | Remedial Building Services

Hamish Anderson20 Dec, 2023Business

Have you ever paid attention to your Annual Fire Safety Statement ? otherwise known as your AFSS and do you know what it is? Your AFSS is a legal document all commercial and residential buildings are required to have on display in a public place such as the entry lobby. This document lists all the essential fire services within the building and the standards they were installed to. By law, owners of a building are required to ensure all occupants within the building are safe, thus, keeping your AFSS up to date is essential. However, The BCA is constantly upgraded, meaning over a period of time, most, if not all buildings will be served with a council fire upgrade notice, which will identify the current standards which your building fails to comply with.
