Fire safety audit and assurance
A fire safety audit is in addition to, not instead of, a fire safety assessment. It’s an essential tool to help staff understand, improve and apply fire safety policies and procedures, systems and training. All these elements combine to reduce risk and ensure you are complying with legal requirements*.

Ask the experts
We can carry out a fire safety audit that will identify if there are any omissions or issues with your existing arrangements and provision. And if you want us to help you with the next steps, our fire safety managers and consultants can work with you to fill the gaps.
This can include developing or providing fire policy and procedures, fire plans and fire safety risk assessments in line with current legislation. We can also help with the development of a Fire Safety Emergency Plan to ensure all staff understand who is responsible for fire safety on your site, how a fire might occur and what to do if one does. We can also provide an equipment inspection and maintenance programme.
