A fire risk assessment is a fundamental part of effective fire safety management, helping identify potential hazards, consider the people who may be affected and assess the measures in place to reduce the likelihood and impact of fire. Keeping an assessment accurate and up to date is an important responsibility for those managing occupied premises.
At Safe I.S., we provide professional fire risk assessments across Yorkshire, supporting businesses, landlords, organisations and other responsible persons with clear, practical assessments.

Yorkshire encompasses some of England's largest and most diverse urban centres, including Leeds, Sheffield, Bradford, York, Hull and Wakefield. These cities and their surrounding areas contain extensive commercial, industrial, retail, hospitality, educational and residential premises, from modern developments and business parks to historic town centres and converted buildings. Areas such as Harrogate, Huddersfield, Halifax, Doncaster and Scarborough add further variety, with their own combinations of commercial activity, tourism, housing and community facilities.
Beyond the major towns and cities, Yorkshire includes extensive rural areas, market towns and villages, with agriculture, hospitality, visitor accommodation and rural businesses forming an important part of the regional economy. The Yorkshire Dales, North York Moors and Yorkshire Wolds create a distinctive landscape alongside major transport corridors and established industrial areas. This varied environment means fire safety considerations can differ considerably between properties, making professional assessment an important part of responsible building management.

We understand fire safety compliance can seem complex. Here are our answers to common questions about fire risk assessments in Yorkshire.
1. What does a fire risk assessment cover?
An assessment considers potential fire hazards, sources of ignition and fuel, people at risk, existing fire safety measures and arrangements for warning and evacuating occupants. It also identifies where additional measures may be required.
2. Is a fire risk assessment legally required in Yorkshire?
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 to relevant premises throughout Yorkshire.
3. How often should a fire risk assessment be reviewed?
There is no single review period that applies to every building. The assessment should be reviewed regularly and whenever there is reason to suspect it is no longer valid, including following significant changes to the premises, its use or the people who may be at risk.
4. What happens if fire safety risks are identified?
The assessment report will explain the relevant findings and provide practical recommendations for addressing identified issues. These findings can then be used to plan appropriate remedial action and support ongoing fire safety management.
5. Do you carry out fire risk assessments beyond Yorkshire?
Absolutely! While our focus includes Yorkshire, Safe I.S. offers nationwide fire risk assessment services.
