UK Businesses and Organisations
Fire Risk Assessments are a legal requirement for all UK businesses and organisations. If you employ five or more people it must be documented and available for inspection.
The basic requirement is that each organisation must identify and nominate an individual as the 'responsible person'.
That person's duty is then to ensure that all reasonable steps are taken to eliminate the risk of fire on the premises. The responsibility is for all the individuals that work at the premises AND visitors.
