  1. What type of FDNY inspections typically occur at construction sites?

    Answer: Both announced and unannounced inspections by FDNY Bureau of Fire Prevention inspectors

    FDNY conducts both announced and unannounced inspections of construction sites — site personnel must be in compliance at all times, not just when inspectors are expected.

  2. When FDNY inspectors arrive at a construction site, what is the F-03 fire guard's immediate responsibility?

    Answer: Promptly meet the FDNY inspectors, identify themselves, and provide full access and assistance

    The F-03 fire guard must immediately meet FDNY inspectors, identify themselves as the Certificate of Fitness holder, and provide full cooperation and site access.

  3. What is FDNY's Stop Work Order authority on a construction site?

    Answer: FDNY may issue a Stop Work Order for fire code violations creating an imminent danger to life safety

    FDNY has independent authority to issue Stop Work Orders when fire code violations create imminent danger to workers or the public.

  4. What is an OATH hearing in the context of FDNY enforcement actions on construction sites?

    Answer: A hearing before the Office of Administrative Trials and Hearings to adjudicate FDNY fire code violations

    OATH is the Office of Administrative Trials and Hearings — an independent NYC agency that adjudicates violations issued by FDNY and other city agencies.

  5. How should an F-03 fire guard document an FDNY inspection visit?

    Answer: Document in the fire watch log: date, time, inspector name/shield number, areas inspected, violations noted, and corrective actions directed

    All FDNY inspection visits must be documented in the fire watch log with inspector identity, areas inspected, any violations found, and corrective actions.

  6. What is the F-03 fire guard's obligation if an FDNY inspector issues a directive that the fire guard believes is incorrect or unduly burdensome?

    Answer: Comply with the directive, document it, and separately contest it through proper channels if warranted

    FDNY directives must be complied with — any contest of the directive must occur through proper legal channels after compliance, not through refusal.
