Look after your people and property with
a SAFE fire risk assessment

Fire | Assessment

Conform to your legal obligation - via SAFE fire assessment

As an employer, you’ll want to make sure that your premises, people and property are properly protected against fire - and you’re also under legal obligations to ensure that this is the case. By engaging SAFE to conduct a fire risk assessment of your premises, you’ll be helping to protect your premises, property and people - and you’ll also be meeting legal obligations imposed by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.

Under the Regulations, the duly appointed ‘Responsible Person’ must ensure that a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment is undertaken so as to identify the fire precautions necessary to protect all building occupants and reduce instances of fire occurring.

Our qualified assessors can conduct a fire risk assessment on your behalf; then they’ll provide you with a comprehensive document that covers all fire assessment matters that have been covered. SAFE’s fire risk assessment process comprises:

1. A tour of the whole area of your responsibility to identify and assess:

• Who is at risk
• Any process or building hazards
• Potential ignition sources
• Deficiencies in existing fire precautions
• Correct types and quantities of suitably maintained fire safety equipment
  (fire alarms / fire extinguishers etc) required
• Appropriate fire training and drills required
• Signs and notices needed
• Adequate means of escape in the event of fire

2. Evaluation of your company's fire manual(s) and emergency procedures, including any Permit To Work systems that you may have in place

3. Production and issue of a fire safety management plan to the responsible person(s). Included in this document would be:

• Documented fire risk assessment
• List of significant findings
• Recommendations on all remedial action(s), where required
• Identification and list of potential ignition sources
• Fire risk assessment performance indicator
• Detailed description of installed fire equipment

4. In addition to the above, we can also provide general fire safety advice and a written Fire Policy Statement (if required).
