Yes. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, all non-domestic premises must have a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment carried out by a competent person. If you employ five or more people, the assessment must be recorded in writing. Failure to comply can result in enforcement action, prohibition notices, and personal prosecution of the Responsible Person.
There is no single fixed interval in law - instead, your fire risk assessment must remain suitable and sufficient at all times. In practice, an annual review is considered best practice for most premises. It should also be reviewed immediately following any significant change to your building, occupancy, processes, or fire safety systems, and after any fire-related incident.
Best practice guidance recommends a formal fire door inspection by a competent person at least every six months for most premises. High-traffic doors may require quarterly inspection. Fire doors should also be inspected following any building work, after a fire or smoke incident, and whenever damage or a fault is reported by staff.
A fire risk assessment must be carried out by a competent person - someone with the knowledge, training, and experience to identify fire hazards and assess risk accurately. For most businesses, this means appointing an accredited external assessor. Wyvern Risk Management's principal assessor holds a Tier 3 National Fire Risk Assessor qualification, a Level 4 Diploma in Fire Risk Assessment, and BAFE SP205 third-party accreditation.
