A firewatch is when trained personnel continuously monitor an area to detect and respond to fire hazards. This is often required when fire protection systems (such as sprinklers or alarms) are out of service or during high-risk activities like construction, welding, or hot work.
A firewatch may be required by OSHA, NFPA, or local fire codes in situations where:
Fire alarms or sprinkler systems are temporarily disabled
Hot work (welding, cutting, grinding) is being performed
A construction site or facility has increased fire risk
A fire marshal or safety authority mandates it
Our firewatch personnel:
Patrol the designated area to check for fire hazards
Ensure exits and fire equipment remain accessible
Report and respond immediately to emergencies
Keep detailed logs of their patrols and observations
