Required Under UK Law

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (RRO), every non-domestic premises in England and Wales must have a suitable and sufficient Fire Risk Assessment carried out by a competent person.

The responsible person — typically the employer, building owner, or managing agent — is legally accountable. Failure to comply carries unlimited fines and up to two years' imprisonment.

The Building Safety Act 2022 has further strengthened these obligations, particularly for higher-risk residential buildings and multi-occupied premises.

Important: Your FRA must be reviewed following any significant change to your premises — including refurbishment, change of use, or change of occupancy. A document from five years ago is unlikely to be suitable and sufficient.

Common Questions

How often does a Fire Risk Assessment need to be reviewed?

There is no fixed legal interval, but the FRA must be reviewed whenever there is a significant change to the premises, occupancy, or use. As best practice, an annual review is recommended for most commercial premises.

Who is legally responsible for the Fire Risk Assessment?

The "responsible person" under the RRO 2005 — typically the employer, building owner, or managing agent. In multi-tenanted buildings, responsibility may be shared between multiple parties.

What happens if I don't have a Fire Risk Assessment?

Non-compliance with the RRO 2005 can result in unlimited fines, improvement notices, prohibition notices (closing your premises), and up to two years' imprisonment in serious cases.

How long does a Fire Risk Assessment take?

The on-site assessment typically takes two to four hours depending on the size and complexity of the premises. The written report is delivered within 5 working days of the visit.
