How Our Online Risk Assessments Work

Our aim at APEX RISK ASSESSMENTS, is to make the process of becoming fire safe straight forward and, to use our expertise in Fire Risk Assessment, Fire Safety Management and Health & Safety to guide you through each step, resulting in your premises meeting all legal, insurance and ethical fire safety considerations.

Step One – Nominate a “Responsible Person”

The first step you should consider is the nomination of a “Responsible Person”. This role has profound implications in law.  This person is responsible for your premises, must be fully aware of the legal and insurance obligations under the Fire Safety Order and can be held personally responsible for the consequences in the event of a fire or a failure to comply. They can also be prosecuted criminally, so it is essential that they are fully aware of the responsibility of that role.

The “Responsible Person” might be you, or a suitably competent employee. Their duties include completion of the important task of assessing your site, undertaking a Fire Risk Assessment and taking responsibility for any actions resulting from that.

Step Two – Online Training for Fire Safety and Health & Safety

We recommend that before starting your Risk Assessments, it is advisable to watch the Online Training videos. This includes Fire Awareness,  Fire Warden and Health & Safety training.

Step Three – Fire Risk Assessment or Health & Safety Reports

Our straight forward online Assessment tools will take you through all relevant information about your premises to ensure your safety obligations are fully covered. You can save each page before proceeding, so if you need to take a break, you can do so. After the Fire Risk Assessment is complete, your “Responsible Person” will have a detailed report and action plan and they can then consider all appropriate ways to manage or mitigate the fire safety risks highlighted and manage the implementation of solutions.

The fire safety action plan will contain a prioritised list of objectives. Once these are completed, the information is updated into your Fire Risk Assessment and your fully revised report is complete. You can also do the same if there are any changes to your premises.
