Test Valley Fire Risk Assessment FAQs
Common Fire Safety Questions
We know that fire safety can be complex, so we’ve compiled some frequently asked questions to make the process simpler and clearer.
1. What does a fire risk assessment consider?
An assessment considers potential fire hazards, sources of ignition and fuel, people who may be at risk, existing fire safety measures and the arrangements in place for warning and evacuating occupants. It also identifies areas where additional measures may be needed.
2. How often should a fire risk assessment be reviewed?
There is no single review period that applies to every property. The assessment should be reviewed regularly and whenever there is reason to believe it is no longer valid, including following significant changes to the premises, its use or the people who may be at risk.
3. Is a fire risk assessment legally required in the Test Valley?
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person for most non-domestic premises to carry out and maintain an appropriate fire risk assessment. The requirements apply across England, including premises within Test Valley.
4. What is NFRAR?
NFRAR stands for the National Fire Risk Assessors Register. It is a public register of competent fire risk assessors whose qualifications and competence have been independently verified against defined criteria.
