Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 , the responsible person for the premises must carry out or appoint a competent person to carry out a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment.

​

You’re responsible for fire safety in business or other non-domestic premises if you’re:

• an employer

• the owner

• the landlord

• an occupier; or

• anyone else with control of the premises, for example a facilities manager, building manager, managing agent or risk assessor

​

​

A fire risk assessment is an assessment of your premises, the activities carried on there and the likelihood that a fire could start and cause harm to those in or around the premises.

​

​

​

The aims of the fire risk assessment are:

• To identify the fire hazards.

• To eliminate or reduce the risk of those hazards causing harm to as low as reasonable.

• To decide what passive and active fire precautions and management arrangements are necessary to ensure the safety of people in your premises if a fire does start.

​

​

As the responsible person you must:

​

• carry out a fire risk assessment of the premises and review it regularly

• tell staff or their representatives about the risks you’ve identified

• put in place, and maintain, appropriate fire safety measures

• plan for an emergency

• provide staff information, fire safety instruction and training

​

Non-domestic premises are:

• all workplaces and commercial premises

• all premises the public have access to

• the common areas of multi-occupied residential buildings

​

​

In shared premises it’s likely there’ll be more than one responsible person ( i.e. in the case where two or more business operate i n the same premises) You’ll need to co-ordinate your fire safety plans to make sure people on or around the premises are safe.

​

For common or shared areas, the responsible person is the landlord, freeholder or managing agent
