Fire Risk Assessments in Basingstoke

Home » Fire and Risk Assessment Basingstoke

“Fire safety is not something to leave until tomorrow.”

Since the introduction of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order in 2006, businesses have been legally responsible for managing fire safety within their premises. The legislation replaced a range of older regulations and created a clearer duty for employers, landlords and business owners to properly assess and control fire risks.

A common misunderstanding is the idea that businesses still require a fire certificate. They do not. What is required is a suitable and sufficient Fire and Risk Assessment that identifies hazards, evaluates risk and records the measures needed to keep people safe.

Fire Safety Responsibilities for Businesses

Every business should be able to show that:

  • A full Fire and Risk Assessment has been completed and documented correctly.
  • Fire-fighting equipment has been provided, adequately maintained and regularly inspected, not just admired.
  • Fire extinguishers and related equipment are installed, serviced and maintained regularly.
  • A clear emergency evacuation procedure is in place and communicated to staff.
  • Employees have received suitable fire safety instruction and training.
  • Fire alarms, detection systems and escape routes are appropriate for the building and regularly checked.
  • Any recommended actions are recorded with realistic timescales for completion.
