Fire safety
As well as being a legal requirement, making sure that your workplace is fire safe is one of the most important responsibilities an employer has to employees and the general public.
Poor fire safety management has very serious consequences in terms of lives lost, injuries, damage to property, the environment, and to business continuity.
Moral obligations
