Fire Protection Officer

The prevention of fires and preventive fire protection are of great importance in companies. Fire protection officers are specially trained people appointed by the employer who perform this task as the central contact person in the company. He advises and supports the employer on fire protection issues, controls compliance with fire protection regulations and assesses potential fire hazards.

The entrepreneur is fundamentally responsible for fire protection in the company. Depending on the size and type of company, the tasks associated with fire protection can be very extensive and demanding. According to the legislator, there is therefore the possibility of transferring the fire protection obligations to sufficiently qualified persons, so-called fire protection officers. They advise and support the entrepreneur in all fire protection-related questions and tasks.
