Fire Legislation In The UK
Legislation in England and Wales states that if you’re an employer, owner, landlord or occupier of business or non-domestic premises, and you are made the ‘responsible person’ for the fire safety in a building. You are therefore responsible for taking the necessary steps to protect occupants in your premises from the risk of fire.
It is your duty of care to ensure that all your passive and active fire protection is under a sustained, suitable and sufficient programme of inspection and maintenance.
Support is Available

The Regulatory Reform Fire Safety Order puts the responsibility of Fire Safety on the owner of the building. Alternatively, they may nominate a responsible person who must be competent. The ultimate method of providing assurances that the passive fire protection installations within a building are installed correctly is to have a third-party inspection by a competent person.
