| If
you are an employer or have responsibility for
a branch or business the Regulatory Reform (Fire
Safety) Order 2005 regards you as the ‘responsible
person’ a position which carries a legal
responsibility to undertake a compliant five step
fire risk assessment.
For most businesses
this presents a dilemma; Is there sufficient competency,
skill and experience within the organisation to
lawfully conduct the assessment, develop a cohesive
action plan, and oversee any necessary improvements
without loosing site of the businesses primary
objectives – looking after customers and
upholding the businesses interests?
At Detect Ltd we have professionals who have worked
in the ‘fire industry’ for over 25
years. Our assessors have been trained and audited
by a UK accredited body (BRE).
We take a practical approach to the whole process
and attempt, not only, to keep you on the right
side of the law, but also to add value to your
business ensuring your assets and property are
adequately protected. In many cases insurance
small print may already assume certain aspects
to be in place. The fact remains that in excess
of 80% of small to medium sized businesses that
suffer a serious fire never recover.
We would be pleased to talk about your specific
requirements, responsibilities and tailor our
services suit you.
