FIRE SECURITY - FIRE RISK ASSESSMENTS
Do you know the Fire Safety law has changed from October 2006? This has major implications for how safety is controlled in business premises by both the occupiers and the Fire Authorities.
From now on, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, requires:
- Each premises to have a "suitable and sufficient" fire risk assessment completed by a competent person.
- Where the premises has five or more employees, then a record must be made of significant findings.
- Combustible, flammable and ignition hazards
- Electrical safety hazards
- Active and passive fire protection
- Evacuation and escape routes
- Fire warning system
- Emergency lighting system
- Staff training
- Arson preparedness
- Contractors and visitors
- Management systems and record keeping
Our full Fire Risk Assessment report will identify any areas of concern, with recommendations for improvement and prioritisation of work.
Additionally, Fire Security can assist in training your personnel in Fire Awareness or for Fire Warden or Fire Risk Assessment duties.
