Fire

Be prepared and protect your business

  • In the UK one fire breaks out every minute.
  • Every day there are over 47 fire related injuries.
  • Over 11 people die every week from fire related causes.

New legislation (the Fire Safety Order - FSO) will replace the provisions of the Fire
Precautions Act in England and Wales. The Fire Authority will no longer issue fire
certificates for premises; instead the responsibility for fire protection will lie with
the responsible person (e.g. owner) of the premises. The owner will be responsible
for carrying out a risk assessment and to then make the changes identified.
