Fire and Life Safety

ASU is committed to providing a safe environment for students, faculty, staff and visitors. The Office of Environmental Health, Safety and Risk Management’s Fire and Life Safety Program initiatives are based on state regulations and the National Fire Protection Association’s (NFPA) guidelines on fire and life safety. 

The Fire and Life Safety Program involves numerous initiatives, including fire prevention, fire extinguisher maintenance, fire suppression, fire extinguisher training, emergency evacuation planning, heater safety and the reporting of fire alarm activations. In addition to these initiatives, the program is also responsible for ensuring that all regulations and guidelines are followed in campus buildings, including but not limited to, fire drills, the Texas Clean Air Act and emergency signage.

Our office asks that everyone be aware of their surroundings on a daily basis because this helps prevent injury to people and property. Planning and awareness are the cornerstones of being prepared.
