Service Description: The Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service, Fire Safety Enforcement Officers, deal with all aspects of fire safety on business premises. If you are an employer, you should make sure you and your staff know what to do to prevent a fire in the workplace and how to escape if a fire does break out. If you're concerned about a fire risk which may be a danger to life (for instance a company or organisation disregarding safety practices) you should contact the Fire Safety Enforcement Team.

Answer: Yes. When the Fire Safety Order came into force, fire certificate legislation was repealed and fire certificates are no longer issued. You will need to prepare a fire risk assessment and emergency plan. The information contained in your fire certificate may assist you in assessing the existing control measure at step three in preparing your fire risk assessment.
