Ontario Office of the Fire Marshall Group Homes Fire Safety Guidelines - This guideline is intended, using the current regulatory frameworks of both the Ontario Building Code and the Ontario Fire Code, to assist group home owners/operators to better understand the current fire safety standards that apply to the facilities they are operating. With this information, group home owners and operators can make more informed decisions about the physical environments intended to accommodate their residents. While individual group home circumstances can vary, it is hoped that the guideline will be used by building and fire code enforcement officials in making more uniform decisions in the application and interpretation of their respective regulations.
