What are your Responsibilities?

If you’re a business owner, employer, landlord, or responsible person for any premises, you are legally required to carry out a Fire Risk Assessment and take action to minimise risk.

This applies to all commercial properties and shared residential spaces, regardless of size or sector.

Key fire safety legislation includes:

  • Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005
  • Building Regulations 2010 - Part B: Fire Safety
  • Fire Safety Act 2021
  • Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022

Failure to comply can result in prosecution, enforcement notices, fines, or even imprisonment in serious cases.


What does a Fire Risk Assessment involve?

A Fire Risk Assessment is a structured review of your premises to identify potential fire hazards, evaluate risks to people, and recommend steps to improve safety.

At Red Peak Compliance, our assessments typically include:

  • Identification of fire hazards (e.g. ignition sources, combustible materials)
  • Evaluation of who may be at risk and how
  • Review of fire detection and alarm systems
  • Checks on emergency lighting, fire exits, and escape routes
  • Inspection of fire doors, extinguishers, and signage
  • Review of fire safety policies, procedures, and evacuation plans
  • Clear, prioritised recommendations to help improve compliance and safety

Our reports are clear, practical, and focused on what’s proportionate and necessary for your specific situation.


When should I have a Fire Risk Assessment completed?

Fire Risk Assessments should be reviewed regularly and especially:

  • Annually, or more often depending on the level of risk
  • After a fire incident or near miss
  • When the building layout changes
  • If staff numbers or shift patterns change
  • Following changes in fire safety law or new guidance

We also offer annual review services to ensure your risk assessment stays up to date and compliant year after year.
