Fire in the building - emergency exit

Course Overview

A fire risk assessment is a systematic evaluation of the premises and any associated risks that may cause a fire to start, along with the harm it may cause. The main purpose of the fire risk assessment is to identify and assess all fire risks to which ‘relevant persons’ (i.e., staff, visitors) are exposed for the purposes of taking appropriate measures to control and mitigate those risks.

Fire risk assessments are a legal requirement under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and should be carried out on a regular basis by a suitable qualified person

Fire risk assessment training is a type of training designed to provide individuals with the knowledge and skills necessary to carry out fire risk assessments in various types of premises. The training is usually intended for individuals who are responsible for fire safety in their organization, such as facility managers, safety officers, and other designated personnel.

This course provides the training your appointed staff members need to compile these assessments.

Fire risk assessments are an essential part of managing fire safety in a building. They help to protect people, property, and businesses by minimizing the risks associated with fire.

There is no specific requirement for individuals to undergo formal fire risk assessment training. However, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales, requires the ‘responsible person’ (usually the employer or the owner of the premises) to ensure that a fire risk assessment is carried out by a competent person. This can be an employee or an external consultant.
