The Need For Fire Risk Assessments
Workplace fires are estimated to cost industries over 1 billion pounds each year. In extreme cases some companies are unable to resume business because the fire damage is so extensive.
According to the Home Office, UK fire brigades attended over 36,000 workplace fires. These resulted in fatalities, while over 2,600 employees were injured after they suffered burns or the effects of smoke inhalation.
You can find practical advice and guidance on reducing the risk of fire in your premises in this handy guide. If you are in need of an updated fire risk assessment, speak to our team at Brookside Fire today.

(The word ‘regularly’ in the legislation has never been defined).
