Management functions include: Planning, organizing, staffing, leading or directing, and controlling an organization (a group of one or more people or entities) or effort for the purpose of accomplishing a goal. There are several different resource types within management.
There is no height requirement listed. However, in OSHAâs e-Tool for Evacuation Plans and Procedures, the agency states the following: âTo prevent fire extinguishers from being moved or damaged, they should be mounted on brackets or in wall cabinets with the carrying handle placed 3-1/2 to 5 feet above the floor.
In the USA, NFPA 1 requires portable fire extinguishers to be mounted with their top no more than 5 feet from the floor, if under 40 pounds, no more than 3 1/2 feet (42 inches) if they are over 40 pounds. In both cases, the bottom of the fire extinguisher must be at least 4 inches from the floor, except for larger extinguishers mounted on wheels. NFPA 1: 13.6.8.1.3.8 (2009), with reference to NFPA 10: 6.1.3.8.
