Fire Risk Assessment
What is it?
If you own, manage, or occupy a business or non-domestic property in England and Wales, you are legally responsible for fire safety under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. As the designated ‘responsible person,’ it’s your duty to ensure your premises are safe.
Office Compliance Management works with businesses across London and the UK to provide comprehensive fire risk assessments, tailored to meet your compliance needs.
Why do we need it?
Fire risk assessments aren’t just a legal requirement—they’re essential for protecting your business, staff, and visitors. Fires can devastate businesses, with many unable to recover from the damage.
Effective fire prevention starts with identifying and addressing risks.
Recent updates to legislation mean:
All workplaces, regardless of size, now require a documented fire risk assessment.
All findings, even minor ones, must be recorded—not just significant risks.
Failure to comply can result in hefty fines, legal action, or worse, endanger lives. A fire risk assessment helps you:
Identify fire hazards and risks in your premises.
Implement necessary fire safety measures.
Plan for emergencies and ensure staff are informed and trained.
When should we do it?
You should carry out a fire risk assessment:
Regularly, to ensure compliance and safety.
When changes are made to your premises, such as layout alterations or expansions.
If you move to a new workplace.
The assessment must be conducted by someone with adequate training and expertise in fire safety.
