A Fire Risk Assessment is a thorough examination of a premises to identify potential fire hazards and assess the level of risk they pose. It is a legal requirement for most businesses and non-domestic premises in the UK. A Fire Risk Assessment involves evaluating the likelihood of a fire starting, the potential consequences if a fire were to occur and the evacuation procedures to follow. Fire Risk Assessments will highlight any shortcomings in fire safety measures and provide recommendations for improvement. They should be conducted regularly to ensure the safety of occupants and compliance with fire safety regulations.
