The risk of fire is an ever-present hazard in all forms of buildings. As an occupier/employer it is essential to understand the scale of the risk and the potential consequences if a fire were to develop. Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) is 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 minimised.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (FSO) came into effect in October 2006 and replaced over 70 pieces of fire safety law. It is now a requirement for a company if you employ 5 people or more or if a licence is issued under another piece of legislation in force then the FRA should be documented.
