Order 17880

Order 17880 I am extremely disappointed with the service. 1) The inspector did not show up for the scheduled appointment. 2) Nobody bothered to call me to inform me that the inspector would not come, and I had taken a day off from work specifically for this appointment. 3) I called customer service four times to reschedule, and every single time, I was told that someone would call me back. Unfortunately, nobody ever did. 4) They charged me for a service that was never performed, and it looks like they are having serious difficulties actually delivering what they promise. The level of unprofessionalism is absolutely shocking. I have not seen such blatant disregard and ignorance towards a customer in a very long time. I have wasted my time, money, and energy dealing with a company that clearly does not care about its customers. Avoid this service at all costs!

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (commonly referred to as the RRO or FSO) is a key piece of legislation governing fire safety in England and Wales. Here are the key highlights:

1. Primary Responsibility

  • The Order places the responsibility for fire safety on the “responsible person,” typically the employer, owner, or occupier of the premises.
  • This person must ensure the safety of employees and other relevant persons who may be affected by fire risks in the building.

2. Risk Assessments

  • The responsible person must conduct a thorough fire risk assessment, focusing on identifying fire hazards, reducing risks, and implementing safety measures.
  • Risk assessments should be regularly reviewed and updated, especially when there are significant changes to the premises.

3. Fire Safety Measures

  • Appropriate fire safety measures must be put in place based on the findings of the risk assessment. These include:
    • Fire detection and alarm systems
    • Fire-fighting equipment, such as extinguishers
    • Safe escape routes with clear signage
    • Emergency lighting
  • Maintenance of these systems and equipment is mandatory.

4. Employee Training

  • Employees must be provided with adequate fire safety training, which should include:
    • Understanding fire risks and preventive measures
    • Evacuation procedures
    • Use of fire-fighting equipment
  • Training should be repeated periodically and updated as necessary.

5. Emergency Plans

  • The responsible person must create and maintain a detailed emergency plan outlining the actions to be taken in case of a fire.
  • The plan should be communicated to all occupants of the building and be rehearsed through regular fire drills.

6. Enforcement

  • Fire authorities are responsible for enforcing the Order and have the power to inspect premises, issue notices for improvement, and, if necessary, prosecute for non-compliance.
  • Non-compliance can result in significant fines or imprisonment for severe breaches.

7. Multi-Occupied Buildings

  • In premises with multiple occupiers, each occupier is responsible for the fire safety within their area. However, overall fire safety coordination falls on the building’s owner or manager.

8. Special Considerations

  • The Order considers vulnerable individuals, such as those with disabilities, ensuring that fire safety measures accommodate their needs.

This legislation is crucial for ensuring fire safety in non-domestic premises and for protecting the lives of occupants and visitors alike.
