Does the fire risk assessment require measures such as fire escapes, fire alarms, fire doors or sprinklers to be in place?
There are likely to be a range of prevention and protection measures possible in an individual premises and the FSO allows the responsible person to decide which would be most appropriate in the light of the premises and those who may be on them at any one time. Providing the fire safety measures are adequate to mitigate the potential risk, it is for the responsible person to decide from the range of available options.
