Fire Risk Assessments
It is the responsibility of all employers and building owners to have a regularly updated fire risk assessment conducted to ascertain if the correct fire safety measures are in place and identify which steps must be taken to comply with fire regulations.
Fire Safety Officers from Fire & Rescue Services, have the right to visit premises without notice to assess fire safety measures and to monitor fire risk assessments for effectively identifying issues. Buildings deemed unsafe can be served prohibition and enforcement notices, resulting in fines and even prison sentences.
