The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 states that if you are the Responsible Person of premises, you must make sure you carry out a fire risk assessment, although you can choose to appoint a ‘competent’ risk assessor to carry out a fire risk assessment on your behalf.

When carrying out a risk assessment, we will offer an unbiased, common-sense approach and identify any requirements for improvement in compliance with current regulations. We can also audit any remedial works on completion as a follow up addendum to the Risk assessment.

For businesses employing five or more employees, there is a legal requirement to not only carry out a fire risk assessment, but to document the findings in writing. A fire risk assessment helps you to identify the potential risks on your premises. It will also help you identify the measures you need to put in place to keep people safe.
