External specialist support for fire safety in your organisation
Fire safety is a key component of physical security – and, in an emergency, is crucial for protecting people, infrastructure and operations.
Companies are required to define clear responsibilities, implement appropriate measures and review these regularly. In practice, however, it is often the case that whilst fire safety measures are in place, they are not consistently regulated: responsibilities are unclear, measures are not fully coordinated and training or drills take place only irregularly. Furthermore, requirements set out in guidelines and regulations are not always systematically reviewed.
By appointing an external fire safety officer, you can ensure that your fire safety management is managed in a structured manner, organised effectively and continuously improved – tailored to your organisation and your specific requirements.
We take on this role for you, coordinate all relevant matters, assist with the implementation of measures and ensure that requirements are reliably met.
