A landlord has a lot of responsibilities and the most important one is ensuring the safety of the occupants. It is the landlords job to make sure that the property is safe to live in. If there is an accident like a gas leak or an electric fire and there are no safety precautions then the landlord will be responsible for the damage. A landlord needs to do all the essential landlord safety checks to ensure the safety of the place.
It is the landlords responsibility to comply with all the requirements regarding health and safety laws of the building.
Here are a few common health and safety issues landlords should be aware of and fix.
The safety and condition of the property is the landlords responsibility. Everything that is present in the property is also their responsibility. It is important that the furniture in the building complies with the safety regulations. The bedding you use should have a label and it should be fire resistant. Never buy bedding, furniture of furnishing without taking a look at the label.
Electrical hazards are extremely dangerous as they can do a lot of property damage. A landlord needs to invest in electrical safety because these hazards can be fatal as well. Repairing the switches and sockets is the landlords obligation. It is important the connections satisfy the regulations. It is important that the landlord hires an electrician to check the sockets and switches and fix them if you identify any problem.
Never ignore the importance of a fire alarm system because it can save lives. Make sure that you install smoke alarms in the building. These alarms will set off when there is smoke and alert the occupants so they can get out of the house. The CO detectors are crucial as CO is an odorless, colorless and tasteless gas. It is not possible to detect it without the help of a detector.
It is important that the gas meters and mains fuse boxes are located in an obvious location. There should be nothing in the way that blocks them. The best way to minimize damage in case of an emergency is to cut off the fuel supply. The tenants should be able to reach them without any difficulty. Obscure meters and mains fuse boxes is a safety hazard that you need to take seriously.
Maintenance of the property is the landlords responsibility. Poor maintenance can lead to accidents and injuries. A landlord should invest in maintenance at least annually. Hire professionals to take a look at the whole property, identify problems and fox them. It will ensure the comfort and safety of the tenants.

Q: Missed Outlook meeting notifications, how to make them more obvious? I use Outlook 2013 at work to remind me of meetings and appointments.  However, when the reminder pops up, all that happens is the Outlook icon in the system tray glows orange:

It doesn't blink or anything, just changes colors.  About 50% of the time I miss this.  Is there anything I can do to make these alerts more obvious?  Some sort of balloon popup?  Every time Windows needs to download a security patch, it won't let me hear the end of it; but it decides to be super timid about telling me I have an important phone call in five minutes.  In Outlook Options->Advanced, I did see a Show Reminders checkbox:

And there is a reminder, I just have to click on the glowly orangeness to actually see it.
Plug-ins or third party add-ons would also be acceptable.  Thanks!
Update:
I upgraded to Office 2016 Pro, and the behavior is still the same.  Keeping Outlook non-minimized also doesn't help, since the reminders won't automatically pop up on top of other windows.  I don't see any new settings related to popups or notifications in this version either.

A: I'm trying out SureAlerts, an expensive add-on that does what I want: pops the reminder in front. I also added a longer alarm sound within Outlook itself.

A: This is easy to fix in Outlook 365.

*

*In Outlook go to File > Options > Advanced.

*Under the "Reminders" section, click the checkbox "Show reminders on top of other windows".

*Click OK to save the change.
