The Importance of Fire Risk Assessments for Commercial Properties
Commercial properties are legally required to conduct a fire risk assessment. Here’s why such an assessment is important:
What is a Commercial Fire Risk Assessment?
A commercial fire risk assessment is the evaluation of commercial property for fire hazards or potential risks:
This process involves:
- Identifying fire hazards (e.g., flammable materials, ignition sources).
- Evaluating the risk to people on the premises.
- Evaluating existing fire safety measures on the premises.
- Recording findings and suggesting improvements.
Legal Obligations for Business Owners
Under UK fire safety laws, the “responsible person”—typically the owner, employer, or landlord—is legally obligated to conduct regular fire risk assessments.
