Fire Risk Assessments For Warehouses
As the Responsible Person (RP) or owner of a warehouse, it is essential to ensure the safety of all staff and visitors on your premises.
Warehouses and factories contain numerous potential fire hazards that must be carefully identified and managed. Once hazards are recognised, the risks should be either eliminated or significantly reduced.
For example, faulty electrical equipment can pose a serious fire risk, so a plan should be in place for regular inspections and ongoing review. A comprehensive fire risk assessment ensures that these hazards are managed effectively, keeping your premises compliant with fire safety regulations and protecting everyone on-site.
Fire Risk Assessment Reviews
In line with The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s a legal requirement to carry out an initial fire risk assessment. However, it’s also strongly recommended to review your fire risk assessment documents at least once a year.
Warehouses and factories can change rapidly, with new equipment, storage layouts, or operational processes introducing potential hazards.
Regular reviews ensure that fire risks remain identified, managed, and minimised, keeping your premises and staff safe while following best practice in fire safety.
