What are your legal responsibilities ?

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is a key piece of UK legislation that applies to all non-domestic premises, including multi-occupied buildings and properties with multiple floors.

The legislation requires a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment to be carried out and kept up to date to reflect any changes that could affect fire safety.

While the law does not specify exact timescales for how often a fire risk assessment must be reviewed, this can create uncertainty for duty holders. From our professional experience, we strongly recommend reviewing your fire risk assessment at least once per year. Buildings and working environments can change over time, and regular reviews help ensure emerging risks are identified and controlled promptly.

If significant changes occur,  such as alterations to the building layout, new equipment, changes in occupancy, or operational processes, we advise reviewing the fire risk assessment more frequently, potentially twice per year, to maintain compliance and safety.

If you would like further guidance on your responsibilities under the legislation or advice tailored to your premises, our expert team would be happy to help.

Fire Risk Assessments Oldham - Key Points

See below, our fire risk assessment process in Oldham:

Recognise Fire Hazards – The first step is identifying potential fire hazards within your premises. Using our professional expertise, we carry out a thorough inspection to uncover all risks, including those that may not be immediately obvious. This ensures every hazard is clearly identified and fully understood.

Identify People at Risk – Once hazards have been identified, we assess who may be at risk in the event of a fire. This includes staff, customers, visitors, and any vulnerable individuals. Where necessary, we recommend control measures, relocation strategies, or additional precautions to ensure everyone’s safety and awareness.

Evaluate, Reduce & Control Risks – At this stage, we assess the level of risk and outline practical steps to eliminate or reduce hazards. This may involve changes to procedures, improvements to fire safety equipment, or updates to existing control measures, all aimed at minimising the likelihood and impact of fire.

Record Findings & Providing Training – We provide a detailed written report outlining our findings, required actions, and recommendations. This documentation serves as formal evidence of compliance and can be presented to enforcing authorities if required. 

Ongoing Reviews & Support – To help you remain compliant, we offer automated annual reminders for future fire risk assessment reviews. Many of our clients in Oldham and the surrounding areas choose this service for peace of mind, ensuring their fire safety measures remain up to date at all times.

How much does a Fire Risk Assessment cost ?

We provide costings for our fire risk assessments based on some simple logic. The larger the building, the longer it will likely take us to provide the fire risk assessment. Here’s our guide below:
