ARE YOU RESPONSIBLE?

THE LAW

REGULATORY REFORM (FIRE SAFETY) ORDER 2005

You’re responsible for fire safety in business or other non-domestic premises if you’re:

"The Employer, if the workplace is under their control, or,
​
The person who has control of the premises (as occupier or otherwise) in connection with the carrying on by him/her of a trade, business or other undertaking (for profit or not) is deemed the Responsible Person.​

Where the person in control of the premises does not have control in this way, the Responsible Person is deemed to be the owner."

If any of the above apply to you, you are deemed to be the 'Responsible Person' and are ultimately responsible for the Fire Safety Management of your premises.

As the responsible person how confident are you that you have done all of the following?

Identified all potential hazards

Identified all persons potentially at risk

Ensured your fire safety arrangements protect people

Reviewed your arrangements

Kept your FRA updated

Recorded significant findings

Implemented an action plan

The Responsible Person is held personally liable for any loss of life in the event of a fire. 

Be fully confident that you have met your legal obligations – consult a qualified and experienced Fire Risk Assessor.
