New Guides For The Reform Order
Fire safety law is changing in October 2006.
A set of guidance notes will be available in advance of the changes coming into force.
The guides will tell you what you have to do to comply with fire safety law, help you to carry out a fire risk assessment and identify the general fire precautions you need to have in place.
A set of guidance notes will be available in advance of the changes coming into force.
The guides will tell you what you have to do to comply with fire safety law, help you to carry out a fire risk assessment and identify the general fire precautions you need to have in place.
You will need to take account of where you handle and store flammable substances and determine the necessary precautions to minimise the likelihood of them being involved in a fire.
The guides are being written so that a responsible person, with limited formal training or experience, should be able to carry out a fire risk assessment. If you read the guide and decide you are unable to apply the guidance then you should seek expert advice.
More complex premises will probably need to be assessed by a person who has comprehensive training or experience in fire risk assessment.
However these guides will be appropriate for more complex, multi-occupied buildings to address fire safety issues in individual occupancies.
