Fire Risk Assessment Training

Fire Risk Assessment: Training overview

The Regulatory Reform (Fire safety) Order came into force on the 1st October 2006. One essential requirement of the order is that employers make an assessment of the fire risks that exist in their premises and produce and implement measures to control the risks.
