Under current fire safety legislation, the responsible person is usually the employer, business owner, landlord or anyone in control of the premises. They are legally required to ensure suitable Fire Risk Assessments are carried out and that fire safety in the workplace is properly managed.
Yes. Most non domestic premises in England are legally required to have a suitable and sufficient Fire Risk Assessment. This must be reviewed regularly and updated when significant changes occur within the business or premises.
A Fire Risk Assessment should be reviewed regularly and whenever there are changes such as alterations to the building, changes in staff numbers, new equipment, or a change in how the premises are used.
A professional Fire Risk Assessment involves identifying fire hazards, assessing the level of risk to people, reviewing existing fire safety measures and providing clear practical recommendations to improve Fire Risk Compliance where necessary.
Training requirements depend on the type of business and level of risk. Many workplaces require Fire Safety Training for all staff, with additional fire warden training for designated responsible persons. On site fire extinguisher training is often recommended to give staff practical confidence.
