Your Legal Responsibilities in England
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (RRFSO) applies to most non-domestic premises and the common parts of multi-occupied residential buildings in England.
The Responsible Person must:
• Carry out a suitable and sufficient Fire Risk Assessment.
• Implement appropriate fire safety measures.
• Maintain fire safety systems and equipment.
• Provide suitable fire safety training for employees.
• Review the Fire Risk Assessment whenever it is no longer valid or following significant changes.
Following amendments introduced through the Building Safety Act 2022, Responsible Persons are required to record their Fire Risk Assessment in writing, regardless of the number of employees.
Fire and Rescue Authorities have enforcement powers under the RRFSO and may issue Alterations Notices, Enforcement Notices, Prohibition Notices or prosecute where serious breaches are identified.
Fire Safety Requirements in England
In recent years, several pieces of legislation have strengthened fire safety requirements in England.
These include:
Fire Safety Act 2021
The Fire Safety Act clarified that Fire Risk Assessments for multi-occupied residential buildings should consider the building’s structure, external walls and flat entrance doors where relevant.
Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022
The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 introduced additional duties for Responsible Persons in certain multi-occupied residential buildings, including requirements relating to fire door inspections, the provision of fire safety information to residents and, for higher-rise buildings, additional fire safety measures.
Building Safety Act 2022
The Building Safety Act 2022 introduced a new building safety regime for certain higher-risk residential buildings in England. Depending on the type and use of the building, additional responsibilities may apply alongside the Fire Risk Assessment.
Tower Fire can help Responsible Persons understand the legislation and guidance applicable to their premises.
