Fire Risk Assessment Manchester
As a business or commercial property owner in Manchester, it is your responsibility to ensure your property is fully protected from the risk of fire by carrying out regular fire risk assessments.
Whether you need help conducting a fire risk assessment or updating a previous assessment, our team at Lanahan Risk Management Services can assist with all fire safety compliance needs.
Does my business need a fire risk assessment?
Yes, under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it is a legal requirement for any business to conduct fire risk assessments, including schools, warehouses, factories, licensed premises, care homes and many more properties that are not single private dwellings.
The 'responsible person', whether it is you as the owner, employer, or person in control of the premises, is legally required to take appropriate fire safety measures to reduce the risk of death, injury, or damage that a fire could cause. While others, such as competent third parties, can assist with specific tasks, the legal duty ultimately rests with the responsible person.
