Jurisdiction
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is the primary legislation governing fire safety in non-domestic premises in England and Wales. It replaced over 70 previous pieces of fire safety legislation with a single Order. The Order places duties on the 'responsible person' (employer, building owner, or person with control) to carry out fire risk assessments, implement fire precautions, and maintain fire safety standards. It covers all workplaces, commercial premises, and the common parts of multi-occupied residential buildings. The Fire Safety Act 2021 clarified the Order applies to the structure, external walls, and flat entrance doors of multi-occupied residential buildings. Enforced by local fire and rescue authorities.
