Fire Risk Assessments Kirkby
Fire risk assessments play an important role in helping to safeguard you, everyone on your premises, and the building itself from the potential dangers associated with fire.
If you are based in or around the Kirkby area, our team at Lanahan Risk Management Services can support you with carrying out detailed fire risk assessments and implementing practical measures tailored to the needs of your business.
Are fire risk assessments a legal requirement?
Fire risk assessments are a legal requirement for all businesses under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
Examples of workplaces and organisations that must have a fire risk assessment in place include:
- Schools
- Warehouses
- Factories
- Care homes
- And many other non-single occupancy properties
As a business owner, you are legally regarded as the “responsible person”. This means you must take appropriate measures to reduce the risk of injury, loss of life, or damage that could arise from a fire. While you can delegate certain tasks to a competent individual, such as a trained employee or an external specialist, to complete duties like a fire risk assessment, the overall legal responsibility still rests with you.
Local fire risk assessment services
At Lanahan Risk Management Services, we carry out fire risk assessments for a broad range of businesses in and around the Kirkby area. The aim is to help you protect your organisation and the people working within it, while also providing clear guidance and, where needed, practical training for your team.
As part of our approach, we complete a detailed review of potential fire hazards throughout your premises and provide recommendations tailored to your specific situation, rather than relying on a generic, one size fits all method.
Our fire risk assessment process is aligned with current legislation and follows five main stages designed to support the safety of your premises:
- Identify potential hazards
- Identify who may be at risk
- Assess, remove, or reduce the risks
- Record findings, set out emergency procedures, and provide any necessary training
- Review and update fire risk assessments on a regular basis
