Fire Risk Assessment Form Download for Landlords



Theres been a number of article in PropertyHawk about the new requirements landlords have to commit to regarding a risk assessment of fire risks within their tenanted property .

There is a downloadable Fire Risk Assessment form - word.doc here.

If you haven't already done one, then I advise landlords to do it as soon as possible.

Care and concern for landlords - your darling Margo.

Fire Risk Assessment

A Fire Risk Assessment involves a trained consultant visiting the premises and carrying out a detailed inspection the building and work processes. A written report is then produced detailing the findings of the assessment, together with recommendations for remedial actions.

There are five basic steps in completing a fire risk assessment:

1. Identify fire hazards – sources of ignition, sources of fuel, sources of oxygen

2. Identify people at risk – people in and around the premises, people especially at risk

3. Evaluate, remove, reduce and protect from risk – evaluate risk of fire occurring, evaluate risk to people from fire, remove or reduce fire hazards, remove or reduce the risks to people taking into account detection & warning, fire-fighting equipment, escape routes, lighting, signs and notices, maintenance

4. Record, plan, inform, instruct and train – record significant findings and action taken, prepare emergency plan, inform and instruct relevant people, provide training

5. Review – keep assessment under review, revise when necessary.
