Arman Saeidnia, GM Fire EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa). said that: “False fire alarms costing businesses is disruptive and often a strain on our productivity at work. It’s vital businesses know the triggers and upgrade technologies to ensure false alarms are kept to a minimum. Alarm fatigue can lead to complacency within the workplace – making it harder for people to properly evacuate and react in the case of an actual emergency”.
