If you have any items powered by lithium-ion batteries please remember to:

* Only purchase devices and parts from reputable suppliers
* Charge and store them safely in line with the manufacturer’s guidance
* Only charge them when you’re at home and awake, so you’ll know quickly if there’s a fire
* Always unplug them after use
* Store them well away from escape routes or sleeping areas

It’s essential to have a smoke alarm on each floor of your home and to test it weekly.

You’re responsible for fire safety in business or other non-domestic premises if you’re:

an employer
the owner
the landlord
an occupier

When should a fire risk assessment be reviewed?

The first step to reviewing your fire risk assessment is to look at your current document and think about these questions:

✔️ Is it still applicable to my organisation?
✔️ Am I doing any new activities that could be a fire risk since the document was produced?
✔️ Has there been a major modification to the building?
✔️ Any significant changes to the user group for the property in question?
✔️ When was the last fire risk assessment conducted?
