Is YOUR Organisation at Risk?

As from 1st October 2006 the Regulatory Reform Order (new fire safety law) has made it compulsory for almost every organisation to have a full fire risk assessment. FARMSS firmly believes that fire risk assessments are not a tick box exercise. Organisations adopting this approach are possibly putting themselves, their workforce and other using the premises at ‘risk’. 

At FARMSS we firmly believe that each organisation should have a tailor-made solution to fully meet their fire safety needs in terms of prevention & protection. These fire safety measures become policies and procedures that are incorporated into your ‘core’ daily business activity; thus protecting your workforce and public and ensuring business continuity. 

FARMSS provides a wide range of specialist fire safety training courses and ongoing support measures that enables organisations to fully meet their statutory and moral obligations within the Regulatory Reform Order (RRO). Alternatively we can provide a full professional fire risk assessment process service that offers a ‘cost effective’ solution for your organisation that will ensure full compliance with the RRO.

What are the implications of not having an adequate Fire Risk Assessment?

If a fire occurs the enforcing authority could prosecute the responsible person, this could result in a large fine or in extreme cases imprisonment. Employees and other people using the building could sue your organisation for failing to protect their safety. Your insurance company may challenge your claim for failing to have an adequate fire risk assessment.

REMEMBER! 75% of organisations suffering a fire never recover.
