Generally, there are five key steps included in an assessment…
- Identify the hazards
- Identify the people at risk
- Evaluate, remove or reduce the risks
- Record your findings, prepare an emergency plan and provide training
- Review and update the fire risk assessment regularly
All commercial and public premises require a Fire Risk Assessment. This includes office buildings, shops, cafes, hotels, factories, and warehouses. Residential buildings used for business purposes, such as guest houses and self-catering holiday lets, also require FRAs.
As a rule of thumb, you should review your FRA annually and whenever significant changes are made to your premises. However, larger, high-risk premises may require more frequent assessments.
