How should a fire guard alert occupants during an emergency if the public address system fails?

Accepted Answer

Use voice commands and hand signals to direct evacuation

Time, location, nature of incident, actions taken, injuries, and FDNY response details

A thorough post-incident report documents the timeline, location, nature of the incident, all actions taken by staff, any injuries, FDNY response, and resolution.

During a power outage at a place of assembly, what is the fire guard's priority?

Ensuring emergency lighting is functioning and maintaining calm evacuation if needed

The fire guard must verify that emergency lighting has activated, calm the occupants, and prepare for potential evacuation. Using candles is never permitted as they create a fire hazard.
