Why Fire Safety Matters

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, employers, building owners and those responsible for non-domestic premises have a legal duty to assess fire risks and take appropriate precautions to protect people from harm.

A professional fire safety assessment helps you to:

  • Identify potential fire hazards within your workplace.
  • Protect employees, visitors, contractors and members of the public.
  • Comply with fire safety legislation and regulatory requirements.
  • Reduce the likelihood of fire incidents and business disruption.
  • Ensure emergency procedures are effective and understood.
  • Demonstrate compliance during inspections and audits.
