Fire Safety Risk Assessment

Introduction

The obligations placed upon organisations and individuals to comply with Health & Safety legislation is onerous and often difficult to comprehend.

Even the Health & Safety Executive, a government funded organisation is unable to offer you a definitive list of legislation that applies to your unique set of circumstances. Their view seems to be that you decide what is appropriate from the existing extensive list of legislation.

At Workplace Fire & Safety Ltd, we have invested time and effort on your behalf by compiling a detailed matrix of legislation and business types to enable us to carryout a Health & Safety Audit, which will identify:

What you shoud be doing.
What you are doing.
What you need to be doing.

Should you have completed your own audit or know specifically what risk assessment you need to carryout, then Workplace Fire & Safety Ltd can provide these for you, using our unique approach, cutting out bureaucracy and providing detailed, easy to follow, action plans to assist you implementing the findings simply and effectively with the minimum of effort.

Legislation

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and the Management of Health & Safety at Work Regulations 1992 require you to:

Carryout a risk assessment of your workplace.
Identify the significant findings of the risk assessment and the details of anyone who might be especially at risk in case of fire.
Provide and maintain such fire precautions as are necessary to safeguard those who use the workplace.
Provide information, instruction and training to your employees about the fire precautions in your workplace.

Methodology

The fire safety risk assessment approach Workplace Fire & Safety Ltd take is to utilise the Home Office Employer's Guide, which is available to all employers or responsible persons to enable you to complete a fire safety risk assessment yourselves.

We recognise your need for a simple easy to follow 'action plan' based assessment, which we will provide for you in our documentation.

Our services to you last for a whole year from the date of the inspection. Please feel free to contact Workplace Fire & Safety Ltd at any time to discuss any aspect of your fire safety needs within that period at no additional cost.
