Fire Risk Assessment

The goal is always to help businesses identify gaps, strengthen their arrangements and implement manageable improvements that support safer ways of working moving forward.

A fire risk assessment is one of the most important starting points in understanding how fire safety is being managed within a business. Most businesses in the UK are legally required to have a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.

A suitable and practical assessment helps organisations identify risks, improve visibility and recognise the areas requiring attention in order to strengthen existing arrangements, support safer ways of working and protect life safety.

Active Maintenance is key

However, effective fire safety management does not stop once the assessment is complete. As businesses grow and evolve over time, ongoing oversight, maintenance, communication and review all play an important role in maintaining strong fire safety foundations long term.

Often, businesses are not intentionally overlooking these areas. In reality, arrangements can simply become more difficult to manage over time without regular review and coordinated support. We have supported businesses who did not fully understand what was required under current fire safety legislation or how wider responsibilities connected together operationally.

At SHE does safety, we believe effective fire safety management works best when businesses take a joined up and practical approach.

Alongside our consultancy support, we work collaboratively with trusted specialist providers supporting wider areas of fire safety maintenance. We have built strong relationships with trusted businesses supporting everything from fire alarm installations and maintenance through to specialist inspections of external steel staircases and fire safety training.
