The Law: Where persons are
employed to work, it is a requirement under the (RRO) 2005 to
carry out a fire risk assessment. Where there are 5 or more employees,
the findings must be recorded in writing. Fire and Rescue Authorities
are the enforcing body for the Order. Failure to assess
the fire risks is an offence under the regulations and the Fire
and Rescue Authorities have a statutory duty to enforce compliance
with the Order. In serious cases, penalties of a fine up to £5,000
for each offence or up to 2 years imprisonment can be implemented
The
responsible person must ensure a suitable and sufficient assessment
of the risks is undertaken by a competent person for the purpose
of identifying the general fire precautions he needs to take
to comply with the requirements and prohibitions imposed on him
by or under the Order.
Fire risk assessments must be reviewed regularly by the responsible
person to maintain compliance. AB

by carrying out a Fire Risk Assessment.
