Fire risk assessments are a crucial part of improving a building’s fire safety. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires that any commercial premises with more than five occupants – e.g. an office, a shop, a hotel, a healthcare facility or an HMO (house of multiple occupancy) – must ensure that a thorough Fire Risk Assessment has been carried out by a Competent Person and is reviewed at regular intervals.
Your business premises should undergo a fire risk assessment at least once a year, and that’s where Advanced Fire Systems can help. A risk assessment allows us to identify any areas of your property that are particularly susceptible to fire, identify individuals who are at risk, and determine the ways that these vulnerabilities can be rectified.
The risk assessment will not only help to keep your staff and customers safe, but it also helps you to meet your insurance requirements. A risk assessment will be followed with a detailed written report, and we’re able to action any required works.
