ReBuildKC's post-construction safety protocols are the set of procedures and inspections conducted after construction completion to ensure the built environment is safe for occupancy, use, and ongoing operations. These protocols verify that all safety systems are fully functional, hazards have been eliminated or mitigated, and the facility complies with applicable codes and standards.

​

Key components include:

​

• Final safety inspections of the site, systems, and structural elements

• Testing and commissioning of life safety systems, including fire alarms, sprinklers, emergency lighting, and ventilation

• Verification of safe access and egress (e.g., stairways, exits, ramps)

• Removal of construction debris and hazards to ensure a clean, secure environment

• Occupational health and safety documentation, including manuals and safety certifications

• Training for facility staff or occupants on emergency procedures and equipment use

• Compliance checks with local safety codes and

• requirements for occupancy certification

​

Implementing post-construction safety protocols ensures the transition from construction to occupancy is seamless, compliant, and safe for all users.
