What information must be recorded at the start of each shift in the F-03 fire guard logbook?
Answer: The fire guard's name, certificate number, date, time of arrival, and name of the venue
At the start of each shift, the fire guard must record their name, Certificate of Fitness number, the date, the time they arrived on duty, and the name of the venue in the logbook. This establishes an official record of who was responsible for fire guard duties.
How often must a fire guard conduct and record inspections in the logbook during an event?
Answer: Every 30 minutes throughout the event
F-03 fire guards must conduct and record inspections of the premises every 30 minutes throughout the event. Each round must be documented in the logbook with the time the inspection was completed and any observations noted.
What must an F-03 fire guard enter in the logbook when they observe a fire code violation?
Answer: The nature of the violation, the time observed, the location, and the action taken to correct it
When a violation is observed, the fire guard must record the exact nature of the violation, the time it was observed, the location within the venue, and what action was taken to correct it. Detailed documentation creates an accountability trail and satisfies FDNY requirements.
How long must fire guard logbooks be retained by the venue after an event?
Answer: 1 year
Fire guard logbooks must be kept on-site and retained for at least one year after the date of the last entry. The FDNY may request logbooks for review during inspections or investigations, so they must be readily available.
What must a fire guard record in the logbook when relieved by another fire guard during an event?
Answer: The time of relief and the name and certificate number of the relieving fire guard
When one fire guard is relieved by another, the departing fire guard must record the exact time of relief and the incoming fire guard's full name and Certificate of Fitness number. This creates a continuous chain of accountability in the logbook.
Which of the following correctly describes the type of logbook required for F-03 fire guard duties?
Answer: A bound, permanently paginated logbook that prevents removal of pages
The FDNY requires a bound, permanently paginated logbook — pages cannot be removed or altered. This format ensures that all records are tamper-resistant and that no entries can be deleted, which maintains the integrity of the official record.
