Fire Risk Assessment

The first step to preventing a fire is a fire risk assessment. 

Carrying out a fire risk assessment is a legal requirement (as of October 2006) and also brings real benefits to businesses.  By taking just a few simple steps, employers will help to reduce fire risks and be able to prevent fires from breaking out.  Considering that about 70% of businesses suffering from a fire never reopen, and those that do usually close within 3 years of the fire, then taking the time to do a fire risk assessment seems like a very sensible business investment. 

Some points to consider:                                            

• Have you researched what is needed to cover fire risk assessment for your business?

• Have you carried out a full fire risk assessment for your business and acted on its recommendations and trained your employees on overall fire safety?
  
• Are you aware that, if you have 5 or more employees, then full documentary evidence of your fire risk assessment needs to be kept to allow inspection at any time?
  
• Would your business stand up to an impromptu inspection from a fire brigade officer, who will need to see not only evidence of a fire risk assessment but also your up-to-date Log Book and test certificates?
  

If you have answered NO to any of the above, then now is the time to act. Contact KRP Fire Protection Services today!
