Dynamic Risk Assessments was set up to assist all businesses including hotels, shops, offices, factories, public houses, residential and nursing homes to comply with the new fire regulations.
Having over 20 years experience with the fire service as a fire prevention officer I have the experience and expertise to help you comply with the Act in a cost effective, efficient and safe manner. I am an independent assessor only concerned with fire risk assessment and have no affiliation with other fire protection products.
From 1st October 2006, the two major pieces of fire safety legislation the Fire Precautions Act 1971 and the Fire Precautions (Workplace) Regulations 1997 as amended have been repealed and replaced by the Regulatory Reform Order 2005. It also consolidates the fire safety provisions of other legislation under one simple set of goal based requirements.
This legislation covers virtually every type of building, structure and open space, except for private homes and individual flats in a block or house, although communal areas will be affected. This means that the person responsible (known as the responsible person) for any work place, (usually owner/occupier/employer) must undertake a fire risk assessment.
If there are 5 or more persons employed in the premises then that risk assessment must also be recorded in writing, and available for inspection as required.
