Fire safety & fire prevention can save lives

Fire safety is one of the most important aspects of business security. A fire can not only cause serious damage to property and assets, but also endanger lives and threaten the continuity of your business. Preventing fire risks is therefore essential, and preparing a thorough fire risk assessment is the first step towards effective fire prevention.
Prevom helps you thoroughly identify your fire risks. Our specialists have extensive experience in drawing up a fire risk analysis and implementing prevention measures to ensure that you comply with legal requirements, but above all that your employees and business premises are optimally protected.

What is a fire risk analysis?

A fire risk analysis is a systematic assessment of the potential fire risks within your company. The aim of this analysis is to identify and assess potential hazards so that adequate prevention measures can be taken to minimise the likelihood of a fire.

The assessed aspects in a risk analysis

In a risk analysis, we assess the following aspects, among others:

  • Combustible materials: what substances or materials within the company can cause or accelerate an incipient fire?
  • Fire hot spots: where within the organisation is there an increased risk of fire, such as at electrical installations or in workshops where fire is handled?
  • Escape routes and emergency exits: are there enough emergency exits and are they easily accessible and visible?
  • Fire detection and extinguishing systems: does the premises have smoke detectors, sprinklers and other detection systems that can quickly detect and extinguish an incipient fire? Are there sufficient extinguishing agents?
  • Staff knowledge and training: are staff adequately trained to act quickly and effectively in case of fire?

By conducting a thorough analysis of these factors, companies can not only improve their fire safety procedures, but also comply with legal requirements for fire safety & fire prevention.

Why is a fire risk analysis essential for your business?

Preparing a fire risk analysis not only provides assurance that your business complies with applicable laws and regulations, but it also offers protection against the harmful effects of fire. A good risk analysis can help your company to:

Save lives

  • A well-coordinated fire safety and fire prevention plan, sufficient precautions and prevention can ensure that you can evacuate your employees and visitors quickly and safely in case of fire.

Mitigate possible damage

  • Identifying risk factors early and taking preventive measures can significantly reduce the risk of fire, resulting in less damage to buildings, equipment and stock.

Ensuring continuity

  • A fire can lead to long-term business interruptions, which can have a negative impact on turnover and reputation. With a risk analysis, you reduce the risk of business interruption.

Reduce insurance costs

  • Insurance companies look at your fire safety measures when determining the amount of your premium. A thorough risk analysis can help reduce the cost of your fire insurance.

plaatsbezoek en kennismaking

Site visit & introduction to the company

We visit your company under supervision to get a good idea of the workplaces and get to know the employees and their routines.

What do we do during the company visit?

  • We assess the presence of combustible materials and possible fire sources within your organisation.
  • We inspect the condition of your fire detection and extinguishing equipment.
  • We review whether there are sufficient escape routes and emergency exits and whether they are easily accessible.
  • We check that an internal emergency plan (evacuation plan) is in place and that staff are aware of procedures in case of fire.

Developing the risk analysis

After the company visit, we analyse all the information collected and identify potential fire risks. We then assess these specific risks based on their likelihood and potential impact. In doing so, we use a risk matrix, identifying the severity of each risk in a structured & efficient manner.
We also carry out a signage study. The purpose of a signage study is to determine which signals and indications are necessary to ensure a safe and efficient evacuation for the users of that location.

What does this achieve?

  • A clear overview of the main fire risks within your company.
  • Prioritise risks based on their impact and likelihood, so you know where to pay most attention.

Recommendations and actions

Based on the risk analysis, we draw up a concrete action plan with recommendations and preventive measures to improve fire safety & fire prevention within your organisation. This can range from technical solutions, such as installing additional extinguishing systems or improving ventilation, to organisational measures, such as adapting working procedures or giving additional training to your staff.

Some examples of possible measures

  • Installing fire alarms, putting fire extinguishers in strategic locations, and checking electrical installations.
  • Developing an internal emergency plan, setting up evacuation procedures and organising regular training around fire safety and fire prevention.
  • Training a fire-fighting service that can respond quickly in case of fire and increasing fire safety knowledge among all employees.

Implementation and support

Once the risk analysis has been completed and recommendations drawn up, we offer guidance on implementing the proposed measures. We work with you to ensure that all fire safety measures are properly implemented and that your organisation is well prepared for any emergencies.

Our role during implementation

  • We help select the right suppliers for fire safety equipment.
  • We support the installation and commissioning of fire protection systems.
  • We provide the necessary training and awareness campaigns within your company.

Our experts ensure prioritisation of the measures and proposals for practical solutions. This is especially interesting for industry, petrochemicals and Seveso companies.
