Workplace Law Group will be publishing a new special report on the fire safety regime in the UK including all the information that a Responsible Person needs to ensure the safety of their premises against the risk of fire.
Legal duties now place a greater emphasis on one person knowing exactly how their building will be affected by fire, so it is important that Responsible Persons have accessible information that is easy to understand.
This new report launched on 14 August 2008, provides authoritative, high-level research that demonstrates the impact of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (RRO), now in force for 20 months.
The report explains fire safety law in detail and provides an analysis of case law under the new legislation in comparison with the old, using real-life examples to highlight its importance.
As well as offering practical advice to building managers and employers, on how to appoint a Responsible Person, and carry out a risk assessment, this report also provides up to the minute research and guidance on issues such as:
- fire safety modelling
- implementing control measures
- alternative means of evacuation and escape
- how to protect people with disabilities
- what fire officers look for when inspecting premises
- how to plan and implement an effective fire strategy
- what to train your staff
- the changing role of the fire services
Fire Safety 2009 is essential reading for employers, managers, occupiers and owners of all premises, who need to understand how the consolidation of fire safety management will affect their business.
The report includes contributions from Norwich Union, the Chief Fire Officers Association, the Fire Brigades Union and Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Services.
