Under current fire safety legislation (The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005), all business premises and residential flats (communal areas) require Fire Risk Assessments.
If you employ 5 or more employees, a written fire risk assessment is required. If you employ fewer than 5 employees, the fire risk assessment does not need to be written down unless the property is a licensed premise or following an instruction from your Local Fire Authority following a potential visit.
Fire Risk Assessments are required for all non-domestic properties including public and commercial premises, such as schools, warehouses, factories, licensed premises, nursing homes, care homes, offices, retail outlets, and businesses which provide sleeping accommodation.
Fire risk assessments are a survey carried out on the premise to identify any fire risks in the property and to provide recommendations on how to make the premise safer.
You are responsible for fire safety in a business or other non-domestic premise if you’re: an owner, the employer, the occupier, the landlord, or a person with control of the premises, for example a building manager or managing agent.
Under Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, this is known as the ‘responsible person’. If there’s more than one responsible person, you are required to work together to meet your responsibilities in relation to fire safety.
Our assessments offer assurance that your premises are safe and compliant with fire safety regulations.
We help you maintain compliance with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and other relevant legislation.
