What should be included in fire risk assessment?

[Guest MelanieK]

I hope all is well.

I just have a quick query.

I hired a professional to carry out a fire risk assessment and I am skeptical as to whether they have carried it out effectively. Can you please let me know as a minimum what should be exactly noted in a fire risk assessment?

Thank you

Hi Melanie,

A fire risk assessment should look something like this standard fire risk assessment form (obviously filled in). Many fire risk assessors use a computer based program which works with tick boxes and minimum text. For simple premises (small shops and small offices) this process is very fast. It really depends how complex your premises are.
