Fire Risk Assessments
At SP Training Solutions Ltd, we offer professional Fire Risk Assessments to help your business meet its legal obligations and maintain a safe environment for staff, customers, and visitors.
Why Fire Risk Assessments Matter:
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, all UK businesses and non-domestic premises are required by law to carry out a suitable and sufficient Fire Risk Assessment. This vital process identifies fire hazards, evaluates the risk to people, and ensures that adequate fire safety measures are in place.
Failing to carry out a Fire Risk Assessment can result in enforcement action, fines, or even prosecution in the event of an incident.
Our Fire Risk Assessment Service Includes:
A comprehensive inspection of your premises by an assessor
Identification of fire hazards and people at risk
Evaluation of current fire safety measures and recommendations for improvement
A detailed, easy-to-understand written report with prioritised actions
Guidance on fire prevention, evacuation planning, and legal compliance
Who Needs a Fire Risk Assessment?
Fire Risk Assessments are a legal requirement for:
Offices and shops
Factories and warehouses
Healthcare premises
Educational institutions
Hospitality and leisure venues
Residential buildings with shared areas
Essentially, if you are responsible for a workplace or non-domestic building, you must ensure a Fire Risk Assessment is in place and regularly reviewed.
