All New York City (NYC) homeless shelters are required to have an individual holding a Certificate of Fitness (F-80) for “Coordinator of Fire Safety and Alarm Systems” in every facility. This certificate is also needed in any building or occupancy required to have a one-way voice communication system, regardless of occupancy classification, that is operated or occupied by more than 15 persons for a period of more than 30 days, including emergency shelters.
