Under Section 19 of the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 (the 2005 Act) every employer shall identify hazards, assess risks and have a written risk assessment, including any unusual or other risks. To comply with Section 19, employers are required to carry out risk assessments and to record these in the Safety Statement. This legislation stipulates that all employers must carry out a full Fire Risk Assessment, thoroughly examining the potential risk and spread of fire in a commercial property. However, Fire Risk Assessments can be an extremely complex and confusing process and the detail that is required can be intricate and exhaustive. Here at Fire Safety Ireland, we can carry out your assessment for you, working to the highest possible standard and ensuring you comply with all your legal and contractual obligations.
