Product Overview

Small community groups, in control of communal premises, such as churches and village halls, have a legal responsibility to ensure that adequate and appropriate fire safety measures are in place for individuals to be able to use the space safely. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 states that fire risk assessments must be carried out in businesses and organisations by a Responsible Person. Small communities may not have an individual that can be seen as a Competent Person which can properly assess the fire risks and define the corrective actions needed, so the fire risk assessment can be outsourced by Safelincs.

Our expert assessors will attend your site at a time that suits you. All the advice is bespoke and all solutions for reducing, eliminating, and mitigating against the risk of fire are offered with full knowledge of fire safety legislation and best practice. In addition, you get FREE access to our Online FRA Portal where you can keep track of the control measures you have in place for your community's communal premises.

Your fire risk assessment will take into account details such as:

  • The difference between fire safety for volunteers and staff, visitors, contractors, and congregation
  • Current fire hazards and how to eliminate or reduce them
  • Legal requirements for fire detection and warning systems, escape routes, and emergency lighting
  • Additional risks presented to persons with restricted movement or perception due to age or disability
  • Required and recommended fire fighting equipment or systems for your premises
    • Including what measures NOT to put into place
  • The need to balance fire safety with community funds and architectural appeal
  • Service schedules for fire safety provisions – alarms systems, fire suppression, and lighting
  • Periods and triggers for review of the fire risk assessment and control measures

Any equipment that is recommended through our risk assessment service (except emergency lighting and illuminated signage) can be purchased from Safelincs at an exclusive 10% discount. And we guarantee not to over-prescribe – you can obtain your necessary services and equipment from anywhere of your choosing.

FRA Details

Our trained and professional fire risk assessors will inspect your site in line with all of your requirements for safety, hygiene, privacy, and confidentiality.

We provide these digitally to save on paper but a printed copy is available upon request. The FRA service also includes access to all of your information through our sophisticated online portal – more details on this FREE system below.

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 states that fire risk assessments must be carried out in businesses and organisations by a responsible person. Most companies do not have personnel with the required skills and competence to properly assess the risks and define the necessary corrective actions, so the fire risk assessment can be outsourced to Safelincs.

FAQs (3)
Q. Which type of organisation are your fire risk assessments suitable for?
A.

Our fire risk assessments are suitable for business premises and organisations, HMO communal areas, shops, restaurants, medical practices, schools, education facilities, offices, warehouses and places of worship.

Q. How long will my fire risk assessment be valid for?
A.

There is no definite guide to how often you should carry out a fire risk assessment. Government guidelines state that your fire risks should be regularly reviewed. Our recommendation is that you review your fire safety annually and carry out a full fire risk assessment if there are any changes within your business.

Q. Who needs to have a written fire risk assessment?
A.

If your business or organisation has five or more occupants, you must have a written fire risk assessment. However, it is best practice to still record all the information and all suggested changes, which may have resulted in a follow-up action even if you less that five occupants.
