Fire Safety Law provides building-owners, managers, individual leaseholders, mortgage-lenders, landlords, and anyone involved in the purchase or sale of a flat situated within a multi-occupied block, with practical, yet comprehensive and well-researched information regarding the subject of fire safety and the associated responsibilities, obligations and rights. V. Charles Ward addresses in practical legal terms the responsibilities on building-owners to ensure that buildings are fire-safe for people who are living, working, or visiting those buildings and explains what protections are available to leaseholders faced with the costs of making their buildings fire-safe. The book begins with a summary of the lessons which have come from the Grenfell Inquiry, before providing a practical overview of current fire-safety legislation relating to residential and commercial buildings. This legislative overview will include not only the 2005 Fire Safety Order, as updated by the 2021 Fire Safety Act and the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, but will also include associated and emerging legislation and official guidance in relation to fire safety, including gas and electrical safety regulation, as well as the Building Safety Act 2022. The book will then pull apart a typical long-residential lease within a high-rise block to identify who is directly responsible for fire safety and explain how the costs of making good the fire-risk from defective cladding might be shared out between the ground-landlord and individual residential leaseholders. Having assessed the legal situation as regards existing high-rise leaseholders, the book then addresses the additional ‘due diligence’ required by prospective purchasers of individual high-rise flats, as well as estate agents, mortgage lenders, landlords and conveyancing lawyers, to ensure that what they will be buying or lending money on is ‘fire-safe’ and that any associated costs are fully accounted for.

The guide deals with evacuation issues in relation to disabled people in non-domestic premises. Persons with fire safety obligations need to be aware that the wider aspects of fire safety law apply equally to people with disabilities. Fire prevention or risk reduction practices and the operation of the emergency fire action plan should all consider the effects on disabled people. It should not be assumed that people with disabilities will have a passive role in the event of a fire. This document provides information and guidance on fire evacuation of disabled people from buildings and will assist employers, organisations and fire safety enforcing authorities to consider disabled people in a positive way and to deal with their evacuation in a practical, equality based manner. (The guide is not intended for dwellings or for premises which, as part of their normal operation, provide care and treatment to people with disabilities on a regular basis, such as hospitals and care homes.)

The frequency of lawsuits in the private and public sectors is proliferating, and the fire service is not immune. The protections afforded by Sovereign Immunity have eroded, and fire departments are rightfully being held to quality standards. They face an increasing number of responsibilities that expose them to litigation. Given his legal background and ongoing active role in the fire service, the author is in a unique position to provide expertise on how to avoid legal problems by learning from the experiences of others. The second edition of Fire Service Law continues to provide much-needed coverage of the key areas in which a firefighter or fire department is likely to encounter litigation. The fundamental legal principles presented will serve as an excellent foundation for proper decision making and protocol in a fire service organization. The real-life case studies and relevant examples taken from today’s headlines are valuable tools in the study of fire and EMS law. End-of-chapter review questions correspond to the case studies, and Expand Your Learning exercises are included for student and group assignments. Readers of this authoritative guide can stay abreast of the latest court decisions affecting fire department operations by accessing the author’s Fire, EMS, & Safety Law Newsletter website.

Fire safety is a major concern in many industries, particularly as there have been significant increases in recent years in the quantities of hazardous materials in process, storage or transport. Plants are becoming larger and are often situated in or close to densely populated areas, and the hazards are continually highlighted with incidents such as the fires and explosions at the Piper Alpha oil and gas platform, and the Enschede firework factory. As a result, greater attention than ever before is now being given to the evaluation and control of these hazards. In a comprehensive treatment of the subject unavailable elsewhere, this book describes in detail the applications of hazard and risk analysis to fire safety, going on to develop and apply quantification methods. It also gives an explanation in quantitative terms of improvements in fire safety in association with the costs that are expended in their achievement. Furthermore, a quantitative approach is applied to major fire and explosion disasters to demonstrate crucial faults and events. Featuring: Full international coverage and a review of several major fires and explosion disasters. Presentation of the properties and science of fire including the latest research. Detailed coverage of the performance of fire safety measures. This is an essential book for practitioners in fire safety engineering, loss prevention professionals, technical personnel in insurance companies as well as academics involved in fire science and postgraduate students. This book is also a useful reference for fire safety officers, building designers, engineers in the process industries, safety practitioners and risk assessment consultants.

This booklet has been produced by the Department of Health, Social Services and Public Safety (DHSSPS) to provide guidance on the new fire safety regime. The new regime was introduced for non-domestic premises by Part 3 of the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006 (S.I. 2066/1254 (NI 9), ISBN 9780110800370) and reinforced by the Fire Safety Regulations (NI) 2010 (S.R. 2010/325, ISBN 9780337982187). The regime affects owners, employers, employees, managers and others occupying non-domestic premises; anyone with control, to any extent, of the premises will be required to take steps to prevent fire and mitigate the detrimental effects of a fire on the premises. This requirement will, however, be limited to what is necessary, reasonable or practical in the circumstances and reflect the level of control each occupier has in relation to the premises. This booklet is intended to provide guidance to anyone who has responsibilities under Part 3 of the Fire and Rescue Services (Northern Ireland) Order 2006. The principles of the regime and legal responsibilities are summarised here. Duties imposed by the legislation fall into seven general categories: carrying out a fire safety risk assessment; identifying fire safety measures; interpreting measures using risk reduction principles; arrangements for control and review of the fire safety measures; complying with fire safety regulations; keeping fire safety risk assessment under review; and record keeping.
