Fire Risk Assessment
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and The Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, if you are an employer, landlord or owner of a commercial premises you then have a legal duty to ensure fire safety within your business. If you employ 5 or more people, legally you must have a written Fire Risk Assessment (FRA).
What is a Fire Risk Assessment?
The aim of a Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) is to identify potential fire hazards within a workplace, building or from work activities carried out. It also assesses the risk to life of those occupying the building and makes recommendations to eliminate or mitigate the identified risks by identifying suitable control measures.
Who should undertake a Fire Risk Assessment?
As with any risk assessment it needs to be suitable and sufficient to ensure the risks are clearly identified.
It is essential that the fire risk assessment is completed by someone a competent person and that they have access to relevant information and support.
A competent person would be seen as someone who is trained, experienced and skilled in fire safety.

Risk Assessment Review
A Fire Risk Assessment is like any other risk assessment. Therefore to ensure it is compliant and up to date, it is recommended that it is reviewed annually as part of a periodic review.
It should also be reviewed whenever there are any significant changes that could affect the fire risk, including changes to the building, staff, occupancy, activities, legislation etc...
