Wow, thats terrible. Every workplace I've been in where there have been failed sirens (there have been a couple) have always had them fixed within days of it being reported after a drill. Its one of the reasons you have a drill - to check that all the equipment works. I have actually been a fire warden and been given the instruction that goes with it which includes ensuring that reports of failed equipment or inability to hear alarms are actioned promptly.
