The legal position

What Irish Law Actually Requires

Written plainly, with the source named so you can check it yourself.

The law

Fire safety at work in Ireland is governed by the Fire Services Acts 1981 and 2003 and by the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005. Section 18(2) of the Fire Services Act places the duty on the person in control of the premises.

What the person in control must do

  • Take all reasonable measures to guard against the outbreak of fire
  • Provide fire safety measures and fire safety procedures
  • Make sure those measures and procedures are applied at all times
  • Protect people on the premises if a fire does break out

The assessment in five steps

  • Identify the fire hazards
  • Identify the people at risk
  • Evaluate, remove or reduce the risks
  • Record, plan, inform and train
  • Review regularly and after any change

Competence matters

For larger, complex or higher-risk premises, a fire risk assessment should be carried out or reviewed by someone with the right expertise. This course gives you the knowledge to take part in the process and understand the findings.

Be clear about what this course is. It is online training on how fire risk assessment works. For complex or high-risk premises, the assessment should involve a competent fire safety professional.
