In my opinion, as a landlord, I wouldn't require my tenants to ensure that they are present for the inspection. I would, however, ask them if they can comply with the inspection request. If they agree to the request it would be great and they would assume the risk of any costs incurred if for some reason they weren't around at the right time. If they didn't agree to the request I would make arrangements to be there myself or to have someone else there to take care of things.
