Abstract
Quite often if now always, it is occupants for no mistake of their own who fall victim to fire. Besides damage to their belonging and property, some occupants are burned to death for not knowing what to do in the event of fire. Even though commercial building are provided with the most sophisticated fire safety feature, assurance of safety to building occupants is questionable and held in doubt. Fire outbreaks occur as a result of "human factors", such as carelessness, negligence or simply a lack of fire safety awareness. A fire safety audit is, as its title implies, an inspection that uses the principles of audit as its base, but not as its sole methodology. The process of auditing a workplace, assessing risks and making enforcement decisions will embody the principles, expectations and methodology of the Enforcement Management Model (EMM). There are several benefits by implementation and enforcement of fire safety audit. For example, to ensure all fire safety device keep run their function, to control fire from spreading to other space, and the most important is to make sure occupant safety in that building.
