Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment is required for premises covered by the legislation. Responsibility depends on the property’s use and who controls the premises.
Workplaces, offices, shops and restaurants need appropriate fire safety assessments to identify hazards and protect employees, visitors and other occupants.
Landlords and HMO operators may have fire safety responsibilities, particularly for shared escape routes and communal areas, depending on the property and applicable requirements.
Building owners, managing agents and facilities managers may have duties where they control relevant premises or are responsible for fire safety arrangements.
Care homes, schools and childcare settings may have additional fire safety requirements depending on their use, occupants and applicable regulations.
The purpose of the report is to give the responsible person a clear record of the assessment and the actions arising from it.

Residents, employees, visitors and anyone who may need additional assistance to evacuate safely.
Corridors, stairways, final exits, obstructions and whether occupants can leave the building safely.
The condition of relevant fire doors and features designed to limit the spread of fire and smoke. Where defects require closer examination, a dedicated fire door inspection may be appropriate.
Existing fire detection and alarm arrangements, including any visible concerns identified within the assessment scope.
The availability and condition of provisions that support safe evacuation, with emergency lighting testing relevant where further testing is required.
The presence, accessibility and suitability of firefighting equipment, including whether fire extinguishers servicing.
