TAUNTON FIRE RISK ASSESSMENT
We will help you keep your premises fire safety compliant
Who must have a fire risk assessment?
All business premises must have a fire risk assessment and this must be reviewed on a regular basis, usually this means annually. Since the law changed in October 2023 the requirement to have a written fire risk assessment applies to all workplaces, even small businesses which have less than five employees, so you might find your business is now included where there was no previous requirement.
Since the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety Order) came into force in 2006, the legal requirement to create Fire Risk Assessments falls upon ‘The Responsible Person’ within a business and the old fire certificates, which historically had been completed by the local Fire Service, were scrapped. This normally means the director or business owner is responsible for making sure the law is followed.
Effectively managing fire risks is a crucial aspect of property management. To safeguard against fire hazards, the initial step involves the identification of these potential risks, which is where a Fire Risk Assessment comes into play. A written Fire Risk Assessment isn't just best practice, it's a legal requirement for all businesses, including holiday rentals and blocks of flats. It serves as a systematic evaluation of potential fire hazards within your property, along with specifying the necessary measures to reduce risk.
