12 MONTHLY REVIEWS or WHEN APPLICABLE
Strong Recommendation: Your fire risk assessment needs to be reviewed at least every 12 months: How you complete this necessary work is up to the responsible person for the premises. However, the following general guidance is given FREE TO YOU at this time.
As the responsible person, (example being: person in charge of the workplace) you need to clearly understand your duties by virtue of (UK) fire regulations. It is unwise to assume that the fire risk assessment document, appertaining to your premises, at the present time, will always retain its relevance or significance without frequently reviewing fire hazards and associated fire risks. In some cases, the validity of your document may be completely out of date: and therefore considered as questionable by the local enforcement authority or an insurance company. (You may be taking an unnecessary risk, without knowing it).
Review procedure must be carried out as part of a legally required duty of care. Therefore, acting as a conscientious and diligent fire safety consultancy, we would like to offer our considerable expertise to your business.

Not having a fire risk assessment document may be a criminal offence. ( check with your local fire authority ) If legal proceedings are conducted against you, your fire risk assessment document must indicate precisely that you took all reasonable steps to prevent a fire and to protect your employees and all others using your place of work. Ignorance of the law is no excuse. Similarly, a criminal or civil legal defence based upon an amateurish or a badly prepared document could prove to be both damaging and extremely expensive.
