A fire risk assessment is a systematic process used to identify fire hazards, evaluate the risks associated with those hazards, and determine the necessary measures to prevent or mitigate a fire. In essence, it helps ensure that people, property, and assets are protected from potential fire-related dangers. Key components typically include:

• Hazard Identification: Examining the premises to spot potential fire sources, such as faulty electrical equipment, flammable materials, or poor building design.
• Risk Evaluation: Assessing how likely a fire is to occur and the potential impact it could have on occupants and property.
• Control Measures: Recommending and implementing strategies—like installing fire alarms, providing adequate exits, and ensuring proper staff training—to reduce or eliminate the identified risks.
• Documentation and Review: Recording the findings and actions taken, then regularly reviewing the assessment to ensure continued safety, especially when changes occur within the building or its use.

This process is not only recommended for safety but is also often required by law in many regions to ensure that all potential fire risks are managed effectively.

As a reference in England and Wales the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 sets out the fire safety requirements.
