FAQs

How often should my business have a fire risk assessment?

We’d recommend that you complete a fire risk assessment annually, or more frequently if there are significant changes to your building layout or business activities (for example, renovations or a significant change of staff). This helps ensure that your fire safety measures are always current and effective.

What fire safety systems should be in place in my business?

Depending on the size and purpose of your building, you’ll typically need fire alarms, emergency lighting, fire extinguishers, and clearly marked evacuation routes. A fire safety engineer can help assess your premises and recommend the most suitable safety equipment.
