Fire Safety Management & Assessment
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires every person who has some level of control within your business premises, to take all reasonable steps to reduce the risk from fire and for ensuring that everyone can escape to safety if a fire occurs. This includes Employers, Building Owners, Landlords (shared premises) and even the Facilities or Building Manager. In some instances more than one person can be responsible.
A fire risk assessment is an essential part of this risk management process and, with regard to life safety, is a legal requirement which must be carried out in all workplaces.
The findings of this fire risk assessment will identify what you need to do to protect everyone who may foreseeably come to your workplace. They will also form the basis for your Emergency Evacuation Plan, which must not rely on local fire and rescue service involvement to be effective.
- Am I responsible for fire safety in my business, even when we work in someone else’s premises?
- How do I make sure that my staff, visitors and contractors are safe in the event of a fire?
- Not all of my staff and visitors are non-disabled, what must I do to assist those who have a disability or impairment?
- Why do I need an Emergency Plan, surely that’s the role of the Fire Brigade ?

Customer Reviews
As fire risk is a particular concern for our business we were keen to work with professionals who had extensive experience and an in-depth understanding of our sector. Mike was incredibly efficient and quickly produced reports and guidance which have significantly improved our site safety moving forward
Mike and the team supported us recently during the expansion of our business with two new site builds. With his advice and expertise we were able to save a lot of money and ensure that our new sites are fully up to standard and are completely safe and compliant from the word go which is a huge relief
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ultra Services Group. Our business is relatively small – 50 employees – yet we were treated with the utmost care and attention throughout. I was particularly impressed having felt as though we weren’t prioritised when engaging with previous fire safety companies. Our fire safety systems are now fully up to date and it cost us a fraction of the prices we’d been quoted by others
