It is now a legal requirement to carry out a Fire Risk Assessment As part of the government’s commitment to reduce death, injury and damaged cause by fire the current fire safety legislation has been reviewed and a number of changes are being made through the Regulatory (fire Safety) Reform Order 2005 It is now the law that all business’s and HMO’s, must carry out a fire risk assessment and act upon it’s findings. |

Regulatory Reform Order - Legal Requirement The Fire Safety Order (FSO) 2005 became law on the 1st October 2006, replacing 118 pieces of legislation, repealing the Fire Precautions Act 1971 and revoking The Fire Precautions (Workplace) Regulations. At a stroke, all fire certificates and plans have ceased to be valid and the highly prescriptive standards set by the Fire Service have been replaced by a system of risk-based assessment, whereby accountability lies squarely and firmly with 'the responsible person' in any business. |
