A dilemma has arisen

Do I prepare a thick document for the insurer that the owner won't read?
Or do I prepare a 15 page document that the owner will read and maybe act on?


Answers on a postcard please

..or FRA on the postcard instead.

daft as it sounds.. I have seen some FRAs which would fit onto a post card...

I know of a fire extinguisher, fire alarm and emergency lighting company which started to do fire risk assessments using a former firefighter, who I can't remember ever being involved in fire safety. The outfit have now become so competent that it is ignoring BS5839 Pt1 and recommending and installing fire alarm systems which comply with nothing.

How do the likes of us keep up?

Get him to do a site in Nottingham & then complain about the site to the fire authority.

They are still very keen and will read carefully from cover to cover an FRA and if it is in the slightest bit duff take formal action (mine passed by the way!).

Got some more info on how the assessor they jailed slipped up as well - put it like this, if your FRA has an address on and you haven't actually bothered to look around all areas in that address you are going to get into hot water.... it seems he did his FRA downstairs (sat at the bar???) and didn't even go upstairs to the sleeping accommodation area!

You mean you have to look around the whole building. I must invite a large Fire Safety Consultancy business to attend one of my courses - Basic Fire Safety - Module 3 - How to Recognise Large Holes in Fire Resisting Walls & Partitions..[/b]

I have since discovered that the fire alarms in question are those being sold for use in small premises, building sites and other temporary use. PP3 battery powered only and no BS reference.
