What is Fire Risk Assessment?
The fire risk assessment has become the cornerstone of fire safety in practically all non-domestic buildings since 2006. Previously, the fire and rescue department would come by and provide fire certifications from any of the ordinary places of business, basically acting as free consultants. All of that has changed, and the fire risk assessment is now the true cornerstone for a secure structure.
To avoid fire danger, keep a close eye on your property and the individuals who use it. This is so that you can assess the hazards and enhance your fire protection measures to keep people safe.
In general, evaluations are carried out in five steps:
- Detecting the presence of fire dangers.
- Detecting persons who are at danger.
- Evaluate, eliminate, or minimize the hazards.
- All results should be documented, an emergency plan should be developed, and training should be provided.
