FRA FAQs
Fire Risk Assessments can be a minefield when it comes to regulations & what you need to cover.
Here are some of our most frequently asked questions which will hopefully clear up some of your concerns.
How often should I carry out a Fire Risk Assessment?
The ideal frequency for reviewing a fire risk assessment depends on various factors, such as the nature of the premises, the activities conducted within, and the number of people present. However, a general guideline is to review the assessment at least annually.
Additionally, reviews should be carried out whenever there are significant changes in the premises, such as renovations, alterations, or changes in occupancy levels.

Who is responsible for completing a fire risk assessment?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsibility for completing a Fire Risk Assessment falls on the ‘Responsible Person.’ This person is typically the property owner, employer, landlord, or anyone with control over the premises.
If you do not feel confident in completing a comprehensive FRA, the responsible person must appoint a competent Fire Risk Assessor such as UK Fire Consultants.

Is a Fire Risk Assessment assessment a legal requirement?
Yes, conducting a Fire Risk Assessment is a legal requirement and if your business has 5 or more people, a written record of your assessment must be kept. If you hold responsibility for a building, such as an employer, owner, or occupier of premises other than a ‘single private dwelling’ (a private home), it is imperative that a competent person undertakes a Fire Risk Assessment.
Our Goal
Our goal is to transform a potentially overwhelming process into a reassuring experience, ensuring that our clients not only meet compliance but also have complete peace of mind regarding their fire safety measures.
