Fire risk assessments should be carried out annually or more frequently if there are significant changes to your building or operations. This ensures that any new hazards are identified and that your fire safety measures are up to date.

The specific systems needed depend on the size, type and use of your premises, but typically include fire alarms, emergency lighting, fire extinguishers, and a clear evacuation plan. A fire safety engineer can assess your site and recommend the appropriate systems to meet your safety requirements.
