🚨 Your building has fire safety equipment. But is it being maintained when it matters?
An Annual Essential Safety Measures Report (AESMR) documents that your building’s required safety measures have been inspected, tested and maintained.
Depending on your building, these can include:
🧯 Fire extinguishers and hose reels
💡 Exit signs and emergency lighting
🚪 Fire doors and clear exit paths
🔥 Fire detection and alarm systems
Why does it matter?
✅ Helps protect staff, tenants and visitors
✅ Supports your building’s safety compliance obligations
✅ Keeps maintenance records accountable and up to date
✅ Helps identify gaps in servicing that need attention
An annual report doesn’t replace regular servicing. The required inspections, testing and maintenance need to happen throughout the year, with records to support the report.
For Victorian buildings subject to these requirements, responsibility ultimately sits with the building owner.
Gen Z Trade Group can help organise essential safety measures servicing and AESMR preparation, making it easier to stay on top of your property’s requirements.
