Fire Risk Assessment

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 came into effect on 01 October 2006. This order relates to fire risk management in all businesses. It is possibly the most radical change in fire legislation ever. It places the sole responsibility for fire safety onto employers.
Responsibility for enforcement of the new rules will be with the local fire and rescue service authority who will carry out regular inspections with top priority going to those premises presenting most risk to the community.

Are you responsible for business premises?

Are you an employer?

Self-employed with business premises?

A charity or voluntary organisation?

A contractor with a degree of control over any premises?

A Fire Risk Assessment on your premises MUST be carried out and documented by a responsible, competent* person. The Fire Authority is the enforcing authority and failure to produce a written fire risk assessment where 5 or more persons are employed, constitutes an offence under the Workplace Regulations.

*A competent person should have an understanding of the systems/processes involved in relation to fire risk assessment, have an appreciation of fire safety, and be aware of the fire evacuation strategy.

Fire certificates no longer have legal status – you must have a Fire Risk Assessment and if you have five of more employees there must be a record of the fire risk assessment together with details of any people that are at particular risk.

You can do it yourself provided you are competent*

You can send one of your staff on a training course to become competent, please click here to visit our main website and view a list of training course available.

You can let us help you - have it done professionally by us - and we’ll take responsibility for the fire risk assessment, documentation and any subsequent dealings with the fire service.
