Fire Management For Schools In Blackburn

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 means that it is now compulsory for all businesses to conduct a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment of all premises and parts of premises.

The order came into force on 1st October 2006 and consolidates and replaces all previous fire safety regulations, meaning fire certificates are no longer issued (except in certain high risk establishments) or accepted as proof of fire safety compliance.

The aim of the new regulations is to create a far simpler system that makes it easier for people to understand what is expected of them, and to place a higher emphasis on fire prevention through risk assessment. There are very few exceptions to the new legislation, and you must ensure that your premises have a fully comprehensive and up-to-date fire risk assessment in place if you:

Are an employer (with business premises)

Are responsible for a business premises

Have a business based in a licensed property

Are a contractor with control over a business premises

Are self-employed
