NFPA 1082-2023 PDF Download

The NFPA 1082-2023 standard aims to establish minimum job performance requirements (JPRs) for personnel serving in the role of facilities fire and life safety directors. These directors play a crucial role in identifying hazards and mitigating risks to facilities and their occupants.

This standard seeks to define and regulate the duties, requirements, abilities, and professional qualifications of facilities fire and life safety directors. It emphasizes the importance of having capable individuals who can effectively administer, plan, train, and respond to emergencies as part of an emergency action plan.

The 2023 edition of NFPA 1082 includes updated reference documents and new informational material in Annex A, which focuses on the currency and competency of knowledge and skills. This serves as a powerful resource for evaluating the competencies of personnel responsible for safeguarding facilities, contents, and occupants.

Recognized and accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), NFPA 1082 sets the benchmark for minimum job performance requirements for facilities fire and life safety directors. This standard is applicable to a wide range of occupancies, excluding industrial settings, and provides facility owners and authorities having jurisdiction with a means to assess the knowledge and expertise of facilities fire and life safety directors.
