The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, a supplementary element of the Fire Safety Order 2005, introduce new obligations on responsible individuals, particularly in high-rise residential buildings. These mandates include sharing essential information with fire and rescue services for efficient operational responses, providing additional safety measures for high-rise and multi-occupied residential buildings over 11 meters, and furnishing residents with fire safety information and instructions about fire doors.
When it comes to conducting a fire safety risk assessment, we can provide competent advice and consultation to the responsible person in order to help them carry out their duties, as defined in the Fire Safety Order 2005.
The term “responsible person” can mean:
- Employers with control over workplaces
- Individuals controlling premises for trade, business, or other undertakings
- Owners in cases where the person in control does not manage premises for trade, business, or other undertakings
This definition spans commercial landlords, HMO landlords, Holiday Let landlords, employers with premises, principal contractors at construction sites, educational institutions, entertainment venues, care facilities, hotels, offices, and shops. All these entities must conduct fire risk assessments and record significant findings to ensure compliance.
