Premises are often exposed to a high risk of fire without the knowledge of those whose duty it is to protect occupants, visitors, or any other person who may be exposed to danger e.g. Firemen, neighbours.

During the hectic day-to-day running of a business or site, flammables accumulate, fire exits may become blocked or used for storage, fire plans and signage are not updated and extinguishers and alarms become inoperable. On construction sites this is particularly serious due to the increased risk of arson and the nature of works carried out.

'Only 1 in 6 companies who suffer a major fire make a successful re-start to their business!'

CPS will carry out a thorough inspection of your workplace and prepare a Fire Risk Assessment Plan. The Plan will advise on the control measures and training requirements needed to lower the potential risk of fire.
