Top HSE consultants companies? The Fire Safety Order (FSO) applies to all non-domestic premises in England and Wales. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 came into effect in October 2006 replacing over 70 pieces of fire safety law. The order applies to common parts of blocks of flats and houses in multiple occupations (hmos). We provide professional assistance, guidance and support to ensure that employers and tenants meet their legal responsibilities under Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. There are a number of fire risk assessment requirements that need to be met and checks that need to be carried out to ensure you are compliant with current law. During the assessment of fire risk, our assessors will look at a number of things such as: We will identify any potential fire hazards, Then we’ll identify the people at risk, We’ll then evaluate, remove or reduce any identified risks, Any findings will be recorded, a plan put in place and training provided, Your fire risk assessment should be reviewed and carried out regularly.
We work closely with our clients from start to finish to ensure they are fully aware of their buildings current health and safety status and any improvements that might need making. Our HSE consultants regularly work in and around the Middlesbrough area and can also cover the rest of the UK too. A Health and Safety Audit is classified by HSE Guidelines for Best Practice as: “The collection of independent information on the efficiency, effectiveness and reliability of the total health and safety management system and drawing up plans for corrective action.” To ensure health and safety compliance we follow these three steps.
Why do it? A Fire Risk Assessment is a legal requirement. If you are responsible for a building, for example a employer, owner or occupier of premises that aren’t a ‘single private dwelling’ (a private home), you need to make sure a suitably competent person completes a Fire Risk Assessment. It is your duty to identify fire risks and hazards in your premises and take appropriate action. In addition, if five or more people work at your premises or your business has a licence under enactment in force, you’ll need your fire risk assessment to be a written record. Make sure you review your risk assessment regularly and whenever significant changes have been made that would have an impact on it. It’s good business sense as well as a legal requirement, often businesses don’t recover after a fire, and effective fire prevention starts with properly understanding the risks.

The primary responsibility for Health & Safety rests with the employer. But employees also have a duty for their own as well as the Health & Safety of others. They apply to all businesses no matter how small, to the self-employed and also employees. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order states that employers must appoint one or more competent persons to assist them with undertaking preventative and protective measures.
