A guide that has three main objectives. One is to provide aspiring and active fire and life safety directors with the relevant knowledge and skills, is to easily identify risks at their work places, save lives and reduce the sad consequential loss of property from fire and none fire incidents and the medical emergencies in high rise buildings. The second objective is to understand the fire alarm system and function at a higher level of competency. And lastly, to unify the efforts of management and employees, to be prepared at all times, to defeat trouble and deranged individuals, who for some sadistic reason want to kill and put an end to innocent lives.
