Up until October 2006, there were approximately 70 different pieces of legislation relating to fire safety in the UK.

A fire risk assessment is the first step in developing a fire safety strategy for your business and can be defined as a method of identifying fire hazards and determining the likelihood or risk that these hazards will result in a fire.
This legislation places a legal obligation on the person deemed to be the Responsible Person for the premises to carry out a suitable and sufficient assessment by a 'Competent Person'.
