Risk Assessment

In addition to COSHH Regulations, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order requires premises to have a Risk Assessment carried out by, or on behalf of, a Responsible Person. 


This risk assessment is used to create a plan to deal with an emergency. 

In terms of guidance, the steps in the risk assessment are as follows:

  1. identify fire hazards
  2. identify people at risk
  3. evaluate, remove or reduce, and protect from risk
  4. record, plan, inform, instruct and train
  5. review regularly
