What is Fire Risk Assessment?
A Fire Risk Assessment is an organized evaluation of a building or workplace to identify possible fire hazards and identify the necessary steps required to prevent and manage fires to ensure the safety of the people. Many structures must comply with this regulatory obligation, which involves identifying risks, evaluating hazards, implementing control measures, documenting findings, and regularly reviewing the evaluation.

What are the Key Aspects of a Fire Risk Assessment
Key aspects of a Fire Safety Risk Inspection include:
1. Identifying fire hazards:
Walking through the building. Looking for anything that could start a fire, like heaters, cooking equipment, or faulty electrical wiring. Also, checking for flammable materials such as paper, chemicals, or waste.
2. Identifying people at risk:
Thinking about who uses the building. Include workers, customers, visitors, or contractors. Paying special attention to people who may need help escaping, like the elderly, children, or disabled individuals.
3. Implementing Measures to Control Risks:
Deciding how likely a fire is and how serious it could be. Then, removing or reducing the risks. For example:
- Fixing faulty wiring
- Storing flammable materials safely
- Smoke and fire alarm system checking.
- Keeping escape routes clear
- Installing fire-resistant doors
- Creating Fire Emergency Evacuation Plan (FEEP)
4. Recording findings:
Writing down what risks were found and what actions were taken. Including who is responsible for each task. Keeping this record for inspections or audits.
5. Reviewing and Updating Regularly
Checking the assessment often. Updating it when you make changes to the building, staff, or equipment. This keeps everyone safe and ensures legal compliance.
Legal Requirements of Fire Risk Assessment in the UK
Under UK law, you must carry out a fire risk assessment if you are responsible for a building that is used for work, rental, or public access. This is set by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which applies to England and Wales.
Who is Legally Responsible for the Fire Risk Inspection?
The person responsible for the assessment is called the Responsible Person. This can be:
- The landlord or building owner
- The employer (if the workplace is under their control)
- The managing agent or HMO license holder
- Anyone with control over the premises
- If more than one person shares responsibility, they must work together to comply.
Fire Risk Assessment for Landlords and HMO Owners
If you let out a property, you are legally responsible for tenant safety. HMOs require a valid fire risk assessment for licensing and local authority checks. We help you:
- Meet HMO licensing fire safety rules
- Identify urgent risks or non-compliance
- Pass local council inspections
- Keep insurance valid
