Fire Safety Briefing For Senior Leaders - Sign Up For The Replay

Date aired 9th October.

Speaker: Tom Stallard – Head Of Fire Services

Safeguard Your Residents, Your Properties, and Your Reputation

As a senior leader in residential property management, you're no stranger to responsibility.

You likely believe your properties are safe from fire risks. But how can you be certain? True safety comes from knowledge, not assumptions.

We invite you to our Fire Safety Briefing, tailored specifically for decision-makers like you, where we will address the question - "How do you know that you are really safe?"

This session is designed to challenge assumptions and provide the insights needed to safeguard your residents, properties, and reputation.

Why This is Important:

  1. Legal Liability: All of the various pieces of legislation have expanded your personal accountability. Ignorance is not a defence.
  2. Financial Risk: Non-compliance could result in unlimited fines or imprisonment. Can your organisation afford these penalties?
  3. Operational Changes: New regulations demand specific tasks and information gathering. Are your current processes sufficient?
  4. Resident Engagement: You're required to make residents central to your safety strategy. How are you managing this?
  5. Risk Assessment Overhaul: Article 156 of the Building Safety Act 2022 has changed fire risk assessment requirements. Is your approach still valid?
  6. Management Planning: Do you have a comprehensive fire safety management plan? It's now a necessity, not an option.

This is a golden opportunity to learn from, pick Tom’s brain and enhance your knowledge of fire safety.
