Premises-specific assessment

Fire risk assessment considerations in Runnymede

A local incident total cannot define the assessment scope. The building’s use, people, layout, construction, management and existing fire precautions remain decisive.

01

Hotels and visitor accommodation

High turnover, sleeping risk and shift work make management and evacuation arrangements important.

02

Education and healthcare

Assisted evacuation, departmental boundaries and larger sites can require specialist experience.

03

Warehousing and employment sites

Storage configuration, vehicle movements, charging and industrial processes should be reflected in the scope.
