We’ve compiled some frequently asked questions, answered by our experts.
1. Is a fire risk assessment legally required in Basingstoke?
For most non-domestic premises in England, the responsible person is required to carry out and regularly review a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. The requirements apply to a wide range of workplaces and other non-domestic premises.
2. What does a fire risk assessment cover?
An assessment considers fire hazards, sources of ignition and fuel, people who may be at risk, existing fire precautions, escape routes and emergency arrangements. The findings are evaluated to identify measures that may be needed to remove, reduce or manage fire risks.
3. How long does a fire risk assessment take?
The duration depends on the size, complexity and use of the premises. Smaller properties may require less time, while larger or more complex buildings need a more detailed inspection and assessment.
4. How often should a fire risk assessment be reviewed?
There is no single review interval that applies to every property. Assessments should be reviewed regularly and whenever significant changes occur that could affect fire safety, such as alterations to the building, changes in occupancy or use, refurbishment or new activities.
5. What happens if the assessment identifies fire safety risks?
The assessment will document the relevant findings and provide practical recommendations based on the conditions identified. These findings can then be used to help plan appropriate measures to reduce or manage the identified risks.
