Seminar Details
Speakers

Fire safety needs to be an important focus whether living in, managing or retrofitting a building in Ontario. This session is intended to provide a refresher on your responsibilities under the Ontario Fire Code, an update on recent amendments to the code, and critical issues relating to fire safety in buildings. Changes in federal laws have an impact on provincial laws, which is demonstrated by amendments to the Fire Code, and incidents in day-to-day operations also point out the need for change. Learn how changes, both temporary and long term, are made to address living and working in Ontario while dealing with current events.
