Why Your Business Needs Fire Safety Consultancy

Legal Compliance

The Fire Services Acts 1981 and 2003 require persons in control of premises to take all reasonable fire safety measures. Expert consultancy ensures you meet every requirement.

Protect Your People

Fire safety consultancy identifies and addresses risks before they become incidents. Protecting your staff, visitors, and customers is the primary objective.

Insurance and Liability

Documented fire safety management reduces your liability exposure and can reduce insurance premiums. Insurers increasingly require professional fire risk assessments.

Regulatory Inspections

Fire authorities can inspect your premises without notice. Professional fire safety management ensures you are always inspection-ready.

Business Continuity

Fire can devastate a business. Proactive fire safety consultancy minimises the risk of fire and ensures rapid recovery if an incident occurs.

Fire Safety Legislative Framework in Ireland

Fire safety in Ireland is governed by several key pieces of legislation. The Fire Services Acts 1981 and 2003 place duties on persons having control over premises to take all reasonable measures to guard against the outbreak of fire and to ensure the safety of persons on the premises. The Acts empower fire authorities to inspect premises, issue fire safety notices, and prosecute non-compliance.

The Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 requires employers to identify hazards, assess risks, and prepare emergency plans. This includes fire safety as a workplace hazard, requiring employers to have competent persons, emergency procedures, and appropriate training.

The Building Control Act 1990 and associated Building Regulations (particularly Part B - Fire Safety) set requirements for fire safety in the design and construction of buildings. These requirements cover means of escape, fire detection and alarm, emergency lighting, fire resistance of structural elements, and compartmentation.

All Phoenix STS fire safety consultancy services are covered by professional indemnity (PI) insurance, giving our clients confidence that our advice and reports are backed by comprehensive professional cover.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Under the Fire Services Acts 1981 and 2003, any person having control over premises is required to take all reasonable measures to guard against the outbreak of fire and to ensure the safety of persons on the premises. A professional fire risk assessment is the foundation of meeting this duty. It identifies hazards, evaluates risks, and provides prioritised recommendations to improve fire safety.

Fire risk assessments should be reviewed at least annually, or sooner if there are significant changes to your premises, occupancy, work processes, or following a fire-related incident. Changes such as building alterations, changes of use, or new equipment can all affect your fire risk profile and should trigger a review.

While anyone deemed competent can conduct a fire risk assessment, best practice is to engage a qualified fire safety professional. Phoenix STS assessors hold BEng degrees in Fire Engineering, are registered with the National Fire Risk Assessment Register (NFRAR), and follow PAS 79-1:2020 methodology. This ensures your assessment is thorough, defensible, and meets the highest professional standards.

PAS 79-1:2020 is the published document that provides guidance on fire risk assessment in buildings. Published by the British Standards Institution (BSI), it is the recognised standard for conducting fire risk assessments in the UK and Ireland. It sets out a systematic methodology for identifying fire hazards, evaluating risks, and making recommendations for improvement.

Our fire safety consultancy encompasses the full range of fire safety services: PAS 79-1:2020 fire risk assessments, evacuation planning and fire drill supervision, fire safety management systems, fire door inspections, fire safety policies and documentation, CPD-certified training, and TagEvac sweep evacuation system installation. We tailor our services to your specific needs and can provide individual services or comprehensive packages.

Our fire safety consultants hold BEng degrees in Fire Engineering from recognised universities. They are members of the Institution of Fire Engineers (IFE), the Institute of Fire Safety Managers (IFSM), and are registered on the National Fire Risk Assessment Register (NFRAR). They maintain their competence through ongoing CPD and professional development.
