How often must Fire Life Safety Directors provide refresher training sessions in an R-1 occupancy?

Fire Life Safety Directors (F-LSDs) in R-1 occupancies, such as hotels and motels, are required to conduct refresher training sessions quarterly. This regular training is crucial for ensuring that all staff remain knowledgeable about emergency procedures, fire safety protocols, and their specific roles during an emergency situation.

Quarterly training sessions help reinforce the skills needed to effectively manage fire emergencies and maintain a safe environment for occupants. Increased frequency of these trainings allows personnel to stay updated on any changes in procedures or regulations and practices that may have occurred since their last training. This proactive approach to fire safety and life safety significantly contributes to the overall preparedness of the building management and staff for emergency situations.
