- Develops and applies fire protection policies and safety standards
- Enforces the fire safety regulations and fire protection requirements of the National Building Code of Canada and the National Fire Code of Canada
- Reviews building design drawings and specifications
- Inspects buildings
- Conducts engineering surveys
- Investigates fires
- Provides educational and counselling services to reduce the risk of fires
