Why are Fire Risk assessments needed?
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order comes into effect in October 2006 and will effect all non-domestic premises in England and Wales.

The Fire Safety Order means that a fire risk assessment must be carried out on or at your premises by a competent person, a trained person to ensure that suitable fire precautions, maintenance and management measures are in place to ensure the safety of anyone who uses your premises. Your premises may be subject to inspection from the Fire and Rescue Service who will prosecute in some cases of non-compliance.

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order will:
- Place emphasis on preventing fires and reducing risk, including conducting fire risk assessments and providing relevant training.
- Eliminate the need for a Fire Certificate.
- Make it your responsibility to ensure the safety of everyone who uses your premises.
- Persons and premises affected by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order are
- Persons responsible for business premises
- Employers
- Self-employed persons with business premises
- Charities and voluntary organizations
