Fire Risk Assessments Harrogate - Key Points
Here’s the five step approach to fire risk assessments in Harrogate.
Identify the fire hazards – Before doing anything else, you need to analyse and identify the actual hazards that could cause fire risks. Some hazards are very obvious but others are more difficult to know about which is why it’s important to have an experienced professional do a risk assessment for you.
Identify the people at risk – Once you know what the hazards and dangers are you can begin to let the people who are closest to those problems know that they exist and what to do to avoid them or what to do if an emergency happens. In the best case we will seek to eliminate the fire risk. Some common areas of fire hazards that we see every week are; pieces of equipment, machinery, chemicals, fluids, kitchen appliances and others.
Evaluate, remove and protect from risk – Now it’s time to put things into place and make the building a safer space. Some quick examples of what we may do are add more fire extinguishers, place higher specification fire doors in and more. This part will of course vary depending on the building we’re working on.
Record, plan, inform and train (if required) – Here, we will record our findings, plan future work or further assessment, inform you clearly on action taken and provide any training that might be necessary. It’s important for us to document everything so that you have written evidence that you’ve had a fire risk assessment completed for proof to the local authorities.
Review regularly – Following our first visit, it’s important to keep on top of your fire safety and protection which is why we recommend you set up a routine visit with us at least once annually.
