Fire Risk Assessment FAQs
Q
What Is a Fire Risk Assessment?
A fire risk assessment is an evaluation of the fire hazards in your premises and the steps you need to take to safeguard against them.
It is a legal requirement for all businesses in the UK, and it should be conducted by a qualified assessor.
By law (Article 9 of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005), a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment must be carried out in every building in England and Wales unless it is a domestic dwelling.
Q
How Often Should I Conduct a Fire Safety Risk Assessment?
The frequency of fire risk assessments will depend on the specific risks in your premises and the advice of your assessor.
If there are significant changes to your premises or your business operation, you should consider conducting a new assessment. This could include changes to the layout of the building, the introduction of new equipment or materials, or an increase in the number of people working in the premises.
​
You should also review your assessment regularly to ensure that it remains up-to-date and relevant.
Q

Q
What Does the Fire Risk Assessment Process Involve?

-
Identify the fire hazards
