The first step to preventing a fire is a fire risk assessment.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order which came into force at the beginning of October 2006, have major implications for businesses.
Employers are now responsible for fire safety and are required to carry out a full fire risk assessment, even if the workplace is covered by a fire certificate.
Most of all UK businesses must now comply to the Fire Precautions (Workplace) Regulations as amended in 1999 The Regulations require employers to carry out a comprehensive fire risk assessment of their workplace Fire Risk Assessments are the systematic look at potential sources of fire in the workplace, the dangers that fire poses to those who use the workplace and how the risk and spread of fire can be minimized.
Even businesses with a valid Fire Certificate have to carry out a fire risk assessment If you employ 5 or more people your findings and actions should be fully documented The Fire Brigades are now actively enforcing the Regulations through inspections.
There are various industries and sites that are exempt from the amended regulations:
· People who work in fields, woods or agricultural land · Construction sites · Offshore installations · Ships and other means of transport · Mines (below ground)
