Fire Compliance and Remedial Works
WHY DO YOU NEED A FIRE RISK ASSESSMENT?
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires a fire risk assessment to be carried out for all non-domestic and some types of domestic properties. It is the responsibility of the appointed ‘Responsible Person’ or ‘Duty Holder’ to ensure the assessment is suitable and sufficient. Where a business employs five or more persons, the significant findings of the fire risk assessment must be recorded. We can remove the stress of undertaking a fire safety risk assessment by providing a consultant who is suitably experienced in your specific industry sector. After working alongside your responsible persons, our risk assessment experts will produce a report which includes a fire risk assessment record of significant findings, a clear and concise fire risk assessment action plan detailing actions recommended, and a full fire risk assessment of hazards in the building. We ensure recommendations are appropriate to the premises and business circumstances to effectively reduce, minimise or manage risks. Our fire risk assessment services and recommendations are developed to ensure not only the safety of employees and others who may be affected by a fire on the premises but also protection to the premises and its contents. BAFE SP205 is an industry standard for companies undertaking fire risk assessments. It sets out criteria and requirements for not only the competency of those carrying out the risk assessments, but the competency of those who review and ‘sign off’ the reports before they are issued. It also mak es requirements for the company’s quality management standards. Achieving certification involves a rigorous examination and assessment by a 3rd party certification body of the company’s management systems and processes, and evaluation of the technical competency of the staff. Staff are witnessed carrying out fire risk assessments, and their reports are reviewed. They continue to be evaluated in this way as part of their ongoing monitoring of the company’s standards.
