FAQs - Fire Risk Assessments Scotland

What is a Fire Risk Assessment?

A Fire Risk Assessment is a structured evaluation of a property to identify fire hazards, assess the level of risk to occupants, and determine what safety measures are needed to reduce that risk. It forms a key part of fire safety compliance for both commercial and residential premises.

Is a Fire Risk Assessment a legal requirement in Scotland?

Yes. Under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, the “responsible person” (such as a landlord, employer, or property owner) must ensure that a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment is carried out and kept under review.

What does a Fire Risk Assessment include?

A Fire Risk Assessment typically includes identifying ignition sources, combustible materials, and people at risk, as well as reviewing escape routes, fire detection systems, emergency lighting, fire doors, signage, and existing fire safety procedures.

Who needs a Fire Risk Assessment?

Fire Risk Assessments are required for most non-domestic premises and common areas of residential buildings. This includes landlords, business owners, property managers, and anyone responsible for the safety of occupants in a building.

How often should a Fire Risk Assessment be updated?

A Fire Risk Assessment should be reviewed regularly and updated whenever there are significant changes to the building layout, occupancy, or use. It should also be revisited after any fire incident or if existing safety measures become outdated.

What happens if a Fire Risk Assessment is not carried out?

Failure to carry out a suitable Fire Risk Assessment can result in enforcement action from fire authorities, invalid insurance, fines, and in serious cases, legal prosecution. It also increases the risk to life and property in the event of a fire.
