Fire Risk Assessments (FRA)

Guidance on Fire Risk Assessments

Building Control can now offer the new facility of performing, and if necessary reviewing, the necessary Fire Risk Assessment for your premises to ensure that you comply with the FSO. This will, as far as is practicable, ensure that your premises has adequate fire safety and you are not embarrassed when the local Fire Safety Officer calls. There is a charge for this facility which can be discussed with our Fire Safety Team or Administration Staff or please send an email with your request to buildingcontrol@lbhf.gov.uk.

The local Fire Safety Department of the London Fire Brigade have attended several premises in the Borough that have FRA’s that we have prepared for the ‘responsible person’ and they have found them to be ‘suitable and sufficient’.

We can also offer advice on your Emergency Plan (evacuation of your premises in the case of fire) needed to ensure your occupants evacuate safely in an emergency.

Please contact this department for further details regarding costs, booking a visit, or confirmation that your premises require a (Fire) Risk assessment.
