We recently embarked upon a programme of conducting Fire Risk Assessment surveys for our clients with a view to establishing just how well you are complying with Health and Safety expectations regards Fire Safety. We chose a sample of clubs at random and have unearthed a number of issues that seem to crop up regularly – whilst we hope to roll out surveys on behalf of all our policy holders in the coming months, we felt it was wise to inform you of those areas that seem to regularly pose problems within the industry. If you would wish to discuss any such aspects with us in greater depth, we would welcome your call, in the interim it would be wise to check that you can indeed agree with all these statements.

1. You have an up to date Fire Safety Policy and Emergency Plan

2. You have a suitable Fire Safety induction and training programme for New Starts, Employees and Contractors

3. Your Fire Equipment is regularly maintained and tested

4. All Fire Exits and Routes are suitable marked and signed

5. None of your Fire Doors are wedged open

6. You have an up to date programme of PAT Tests and Fixed Electrical Inspections

Please contact us if you have any concerns.
