The law requires business owners to take ownership of the legal obligations relating to fire safety in their business premises. Understanding the legal requirements takes time. It also takes time to assess risks and maintain and upgrade fire safety equipment regularly. Working with a professional fire risk consultant helps to ensure your business is fully protected and appropriately risk assessed. The fire risk consultant Kent businesses select should have expertise in the field. As local professionals, Risk Safety Services can easily provide the guidance and consultancy to you.
All businesses have a duty of care to their staff and visitors to ensure they have protection against the risk of fire. This includes access to fire exits and also appropriately fire safety equipment should the worst occur. Working with a Fire Risk Consultant Kent means that you have peace of mind that you are meeting your obligations.
Fire Risk Consultant Kent – What do we do?
An experienced fire risk consultant will ensure that your business premises are safe. Firstly, we carry out an initial audit and assessment. We then create an appropriate plan or strategy for your business. This can involve ongoing maintenance and strategy planning and regular risk assessments.
Your fire risk consultant will:
- Assess whether your premises comply with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
- Review your fire emergency arrangements
- Assess how well you can manage fire risks as detailed in Government Guides on Fire Risk Assessment, Fire Safety British Standards and Building Regulations.
Your consultant will record all findings in a summary report. This summary will prioritise findings that are potentially non-compliant and likely to be hazardous in the event of a fire. Finally, they will then provide an action plan, with recommendations for improvements. At Risk Safety Services we are also happy to help put the recommended improvements in place and ensure your business is safe from fire.
