Fire Safety Law & Risk Assessment - 1  Day

Is your organisation fully compliant with the current fire regulations in England and Wales? The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 affects all workplaces, making organisations responsible for their own legislation compliance and fire safety regime. Scotland also has new regulations which are different but broadly similar in impact.  (While this course will not cover the Fire (Scotland) Act in detail, notes on the Scottish Regulations are provided) - please note we will be running a one-day course focused on the Scottish Regulations on 15 September 2010 (Edinburgh).
