FIRE PROTECTION: YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES UNDER THE REGULATORY REFORM (FIRE SAFETY) ORDER (RRFSO) 2ND EDITION

This second edition follows the introduction of the Fire Safety Act 2021, the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, and changes brought about by the Building Safety Act 2022 amending the RRSFO.

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order (RRFSO) imposes important duties and responsibilities for protection of people from fire in all premises other than private homes. The RRFSO takes a broad view of responsibility and some may not realise they have legal responsibilities for fire protection. This accessible guide to fire protection will help you get to grips with the RRFSO, your role as a ‘responsible person’ (or quasi-responsible person), how to implement the RRFSO in your organisation and who can support you in this process.
