Fire watch security guards are responsible for monitoring buildings, construction sites, or other locations for fire hazards and ensuring safety in situations where the risk of fire is heightened. Their duties include:

Inspecting Fire Safety Equipment: Fire watch guards ensure that fire extinguishers, sprinkler systems, and alarms are in proper working order.

Immediate Response: In case of a fire, they are trained to alert the authorities, help with evacuations, and, if necessary, use fire extinguishers to attempt to control small fires.
-
Maintaining Logs: They document their rounds and any incidents, ensuring there’s a detailed record of safety checks and any issues that arise.

Temporary Fire Watch in Special Situations: They are often employed in places where fire safety systems are temporarily inactive, such as during construction, maintenance, or repairs when fire alarms or sprinklers are shut off.
