Who Must Carry Out A Fire Risk Assessment?

Employers (and/or building owners or occupiers) must carry out a fire safety risk assessment and keep it up to date.

​Based on the findings of the assessment, employers need to ensure that adequate and appropriate fire safety measures are in place to minimise the risk of injury or loss of life in the event of a fire.

You’re responsible for fire safety in business or other non-domestic premises if you’re:

• an employer
• the owner
• the landlord
• an occupier

Or anyone else with control of the premises, for example a facilities manager, building manager, managing agent or risk assessor.
You’re known as the ‘responsible person’. If there’s more than one responsible person, you have to work together to meet your responsibilities.

The Fire Safety Order also applies if you have paying guests, for example if you run a bed and breakfast, guesthouse or let a self-catering property.

WT Consultancy (SW) Ltd will carry out suitable and sufficient risk assessment at your premises. Our Risk Assessors are trained, ensured and have the necessary experience to conduct a thorough review of your business, site or building.
