“Being a business owner or manager means you’re subject to a whole range of regulations, covering everything you do and fire safety is just one of these. Red tape and bureaucracy isn’t our business… but keeping people safe from fire and other hazards is.”
“People often underrate fire risk. ‘I didn’t think it would happen to us’ is commonly heard by our firefighters after a fire at a home or business. But what could be worse than losing your building and everything inside it, your equipment, your records, your machinery – and possibly having customers and staff killed or seriously hurt?”
“Our Business Support Plus service is here to help you comply with fire safety regulations by providing an understanding of the law, information and access to a great range of services including a free fire risk assessment tool which will help you make informed decisions about fire safety and create a one-stop-shop for collecting information you need to demonstrate compliance. “
