Who’s responsible for fire safety in your organisation?
Staying on top of fire safety is essential for any employer or landlord – you’re responsible for your tenants’ or employees’ health and safety, and Fire Risk Assessments are a statutory requirement.
If you’re responsible for the safety of others, you need to manage, prevent or control any risks of fire, identifying and assessing the sources of that risk. This even includes risks presented by trespassers – there’s a lot to cover, but our Bison Assist experts can guide you easily through it.
Laws are stricter for employers than landlords. Employers have the ultimate responsibility for the safety of their employees in case of fire, even when others have responsibilities for the premises. In terms of residential premises, legislation is aiming to improve fire safety in blocks of flats from a practicality point of view.
You need to make sure you carry out regular Fire Safety Risk Assessments and keep accurate records of the findings. Many employers and landlords choose Bison Assist to carry out Fire Risk Assessment Services without any hassle – our experts stay up to date with all the legislation so you don’t have to!

What happens in a Fire Risk Assessment?
A Fire Risk Assessment will vary according to the type and use of your premises, and the specific fire risks associated with them – but generally speaking, it involves a Bison Assist expert touring your site to identify hazards, and helping you put measures in place to eliminate or control them.
Our fire safety consultant will take a look at your records to review previous assessments, support you on tackling recommendations from previous reports, and help you identify areas for improvement.
We’re proud being unobtrusive while we’re on site with you, so we’re not impacting your day-to-day operations. Because Fire Risk Assessments should be carried out regularly, we visit once a year to ensure control measures are still effective, and to help you identify and manage potential new hazards.
And when you’re part of the Bison Herd, we’re always on the other end of the phone if you need any advice!
