Security Systems

In order to create a tailor made fire protection service for a company’s specific requirements some sore sort of initial fire protection assessment is essential. This assessment is intended to help you ascertain what risk of fire exists in your workplace and measures that can be implemented to reduce this risk. As part of existing Health and Safety measures it is essential that this initial assessment is carried by a team of specialists or a trained security guard, although it is possible to do it yourself there a number of essential elements that are often overlooked by the uninitiated or inexperienced. The first step is to identify any potential fire hazards within or around the commercial premises, this can include storage areas for flammable liquids and also areas where a live flame is utilised as part of a job. The second stage is to find out which employees/visitors might be in danger if a fire broke out and highlight any existing fire routes. (An in house Fire Marshall would generally accompany you during the assessment; this is more often than not a person with specific training such as a security guard) Next comes the evaluation process, where the systems already in place are either deemed as satisfactory or recommendations are made as to possible improvements. All findings of this assessment are recorded and a detailed report is presented to the facilities manager or similar for further action, certain measures might be recommended either for urgent or imminent attention.

Keeping everyone informed

For something of key importance such as fire safety everyone should be able to input their views before any detailed improvements are implemented. Everyone’s views should be heard as their perspective on the fire safety aspect of the building could be different and throw up some crucial aspects that may have been overlooked. The security guard of a commercial premises is usually a good source of information when assessing fire risk as these people generally visit all areas of a building whilst in the course of their job and as a result are more likely to be able to provide more thorough feedback because of their day to day observations. An area that many inexperienced people overlook when conducting an in house assessment are the places that are rarely used in the businesses day to day operations, this can be a fatal mistake. Fire can break out absolutely anywhere so fire protection measures should not exclude any area of the premises including any outlying buildings or storage areas. Although employing the services of a vigilant guard is a valuable measure against fire in itself, there is still no substitute for adequate security systems.
