Ensuring Compliance & Peace Of Mind
Fire risk assessment reviews are essential to ensure your existing assessment remains compliant, up to date, and effective under current fire safety legislation, including the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
If your business already has a fire risk assessment that hasn’t been reviewed within the last 12–18 months, it is strongly recommended to arrange a formal review. This helps ensure ongoing compliance with evolving regulations.
A fire risk assessment review can identify gaps, outdated information, and changes in risk that may not have been previously considered, helping to maintain a consistently high standard of fire safety.

Why Are Fire Risk Assessment Reviews Important?
Fire risk assessment reviews are essential for both compliance and ongoing fire safety management.
A fire risk assessment should never be viewed as a one-off, “tick-box” exercise; instead, it must be a living document that is regularly reviewed and updated.
Over time, changes within a building can significantly affect fire risk. These may include structural alterations, changes in occupancy levels or use, and the introduction of new or emerging hazards. Regular reviews ensure that these factors are properly identified and addressed.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires that fire risk assessments remain “suitable and sufficient” for the premises. This means they must be kept up to date in line with any relevant changes to the building, its use, or current fire safety guidance.
Failure to maintain an up-to-date assessment can result in non-compliance, which may increase risk to occupants and lead to enforcement action from the relevant fire authority.

Yes. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, fire risk assessments must be kept “suitable and sufficient” at all times. This means they must be reviewed and updated where necessary, particularly when there are changes to the building, its use, occupancy, or fire safety arrangements.
An outdated fire risk assessment can lead to non-compliance with fire safety law, increased risk to occupants, and potential enforcement action from the fire authority.
Fire risk assessments should be reviewed regularly and whenever significant changes occur. As a best practice, many businesses review them annually or every 12–18 months, or sooner if there are changes to the building layout, occupancy, or use.
After your fire risk assessment review, you will receive a clear and detailed report outlining the findings. This will highlight any areas that are compliant, as well as any gaps, risks, or outdated information that need attention. Where improvements are required, the report will include practical, easy-to-follow recommendations to help you achieve and maintain compliance with current fire safety legislation.
Regular reviews help ensure legal compliance, reduce fire risks, improve safety for staff and visitors, and ensure your fire safety measures remain effective and up to date.
