Fire Risk Assessments Kendal

As of October 2023, amendments to fire safety legislation have made it a legal requirement for all businesses, regardless of size, to have a fully documented Fire Risk Assessment. At NPG Fire Safety, we understand that ensuring fire safety is a priority for businesses in Kendal and across the UK. Unfortunately, many business owners are unaware of the full extent of their legal obligations when it comes to fire safety. For this reason, Fire Risk Assessments are often the first step we take with new clients in Kendal to help them achieve compliance with the law.

What is a Fire Risk Assessment?

A Fire Risk Assessment is a thorough evaluation of your fire safety measures. It identifies potential hazards and risks that your premises in Kendal might contain, ensuring the appropriate precautions and procedures are in place to prevent fires and minimise damage should one occur. Businesses benefit greatly from a properly conducted assessment, as it provides a clear roadmap to improving safety and demonstrating compliance with legislative requirements.

Why are Fire Risk Assessments important?

Fire Risk Assessments are vital for ensuring the protection of your Kendal property, employees, and visitors. By identifying fire hazards, you can then implement necessary controls, such as:

  • Fire alarm systems
  • Emergency lighting systems
  • Fire extinguishers
  • Fire doors and structural fire protection
  • Staff training

Beyond protection, a documented Fire Risk Assessment is a legal requirement across the UK. Non-compliance can lead to unlimited fines or even imprisonment. Protecting your Kendal premises and occupants proactively ensures compliance and peace of mind.

What does this mean for you?

If you own non-domestic premises or multi-occupied residential properties in Kendal, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires you to undertake a fully documented Fire Risk Assessment. A properly documented Fire Risk Assessment evaluates your current fire safety measures and highlights necessary improvements to for life safety.
While some business owners in Kendal may choose to conduct their own Fire Risk Assessments, this must be done correctly to be deemed ‘suitable and sufficient’ as the legislation requires. When appointing your fire risk assessment to another person, you must ensure they are competent, as both the responsible person and the appointed assessor can be prosecuted for inadequate assessments.
