Service INFORMATION
We have fully qualified assessors who can carry out a detailed
fire risk assessment of your premises and produce a full report
with any remedial actions highlighted.
A fire risk assessment is an evaluation of your premises to allow
you to recognise fire hazards, those who might be in danger in the event of a fire and what preventative measures need to be taken.
A risk assessment needs to be conducted by a “competent person” who has the experience and expert knowledge of modern day fire safety legislation.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 states that the ‘responsible person’ must arrange a fire risk assessment and should make available a formal record of any significant findings and remedial measures which have, or may need to be, taken.
The responsible person must:
-
carry out a fire risk assessment of the premises
and review it regularly -
tell staff or their representatives about the risks
you’ve identified -
put in place, and maintain, appropriate fire safety measures
-
plan for an emergency
-
provide staff information, fire safety instruction and training
The fire risk assessment will need to be regularly reviewed, especially if any significant changes to the building have
occurred such as change in use, risk or fabric of the building.
Here at Total Fire Solutions we can arrange for a fully qualified
and trained risk assessor to conduct a comprehensive fire risk assessment of your premises. We will supply a full report and
can offer post-assessment solutions if any remedial actions
are identified.
