Why Fire Risk Assessments Are Essential

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, all UK businesses must carry out a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment.

If you employ five or more people, the findings must also be formally documented.

A professional fire risk assessment helps you:

• Identify fire hazards within your premises
• Protect staff, visitors, and assets
• Ensure safe evacuation procedures
• Comply with UK fire safety legislation
• Reduce the likelihood of enforcement action or fines

Many businesses only discover hidden risks during an inspection. Our qualified assessors help identify potential hazards before they become serious problems.

The Responsible Person (usually the employer, building owner, landlord, or facilities manager) is legally responsible for ensuring a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment is carried out and regularly reviewed.

How often should a fire risk assessment be reviewed?

Fire risk assessments should be reviewed regularly, particularly if there are changes to building layout, occupancy levels, working practices, or fire safety systems.

A Fire Risk Assessment includes an inspection of the premises to identify fire hazards, evaluate risks to occupants, review fire safety measures, and assess emergency escape arrangements. You will receive a detailed report outlining identified risks, recommended actions, and a clear action plan to help improve fire safety compliance.

How long does a Fire Risk Assessment take?

Most Fire Risk Assessments take between one and four hours to complete, depending on the size and complexity of the building. Larger sites or premises with multiple floors may require additional time. Following the inspection, a detailed report is produced outlining any findings and recommendations.
