1 Fire Safety in Places of Worship An Insurers Perspective Kevin Thomas, FCII, CFIRM Principal Risk Management Surveyor
2 Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 Replaced 100+ pieces of fire safety legislation Effective 1st October 2006 Includes Places of Worship Focus on People Safety not Property (but helps to reduce the risk of fire damage to property) Requirement to appoint a Responsible Person (RP) who has control of the premises. 2
3 The Responsible Person (RP) RP appointed to be responsible for fire safety. Can be more than one person e.g. the PCC Must make a suitable & sufficient FRA to risks to which persons to the premises exposed RP ensure (so far as is reasonably practicable) that everyone or the premises or near by can safely escape if there is a fire FRA = evaluation of current level of fire safety Record significant findings of FRA in writing if 5+ persons employed RP other duties (Provide information, training, instruction & supervision, emergency plan, review/update and implement FRA actions) RP may appoint Competent Person who understands fire hazards & risks to carry out FRA. RP remains responsible in law for meeting the order. 3
4 The Responsible Person (RP) RP must consider everyone who might be on the premises Employees Visitors Members of the public Persons in immediate vicinity of the premises 4
5 Enforcement Fire and Rescue Service for the area where the premises are located Officers may enter premises (without force) where they have reason to believe it may be necessary Enforcement Notices Prohibition Notice Right of Appeal to a Magistrates Court Fines and up to two years imprisonment 5
6 The First Prosecution June Prohibition Notice January Compliance Visit July Prosecution 6
7 Legal Expenses Insurance Includes legal defence cover Subject to Prospects Clause Early Notification Required 7
8 Fire Risk Assessment - 5 Steps 1. Identify fire hazards 5. Review 2. Identify people at risk 4. Record, plan, inform, instruct and train 3. Evacuate, remove, or reduce and protect people from risk 8
9 Common Themes Places of Worship (F&RS Audit) No Fire Risk Assessment No Emergency Plan No Procedure to raise alarm No Evacuation Plan if fire detected No Steward Training on evacuation No Emergency Lighting 9
10 Church Buildings - General Perspectives Comparatively a low risk environment Low Fire Load Generally low Weekly Occupancy Rate Service User familiarity Ground Ceiling Height Rare for fire to occur when building occupied 10
11 Help to Reduce the Fire risk Proactive Maintenance (Electrical Installation/Appliances/Heating/Lightning Conductor/FEA s) Proactive Housekeeping (waste bins/combustible material/petrol) Proactive Contractor Management 11
12 Emergency Routes & Exits Principles 1 2 Should lead as directly as possible to a place of safety Should be able to evacuate as quickly and as safely as possible 3 Number, dimensions and distribution of emergency routes and exits should be adequate having regard to the use of the premises and the numbers of persons present 4 Other requirements for the nature of exit doors, signage and lighting 12
13 HM Government Publications 13
14 Applying the Guidance Guides do not set prescriptive standards Guides provide recommendations & guidance for use when assessing the adequacy of fire precautions Other FRA methods may be equally valid to comply with fire safety law If you can demonstrate that your existing arrangements meet an equivalent standard of fire safety they are likely to be acceptable There is no obligation to adopt any particular solution in the guides 14
15 Churches do not necessarily have to install: Fire exit signs Emergency lighting Outward opening doors Fire alarm systems Provided the FRA shows that these are not necessary. 15
16 However, churches must have: Arrangements in place to ensure that a fire can be detected and that persons can evacuate the buildings safely. For example, stewards should have torches and be positioned to open exit doors. 16
17 Our Response Template Church FRA 17
18 Template Church FRA Target Typical Anglican Church e.g. Services & Occasional Public Events. Input from Institution of Fire Engineers Special Interest Group for Heritage Buildings Not suitable if wide range of activities - seek professional support from competent Fire Risk Assessor (UKAS Accredited Company or person Scheme/Professional Body Registration Scheme) 18
19 Risk Advice Line Here to Help Dedicated Number ( & answerphone) Contact by Specialist Expert (Property or Health & Safety) within 24 hours Target all enquiries resolved within 5 working days 19

22 Key Messages Here to Help Important to follow Best & Current Practice. FRA = Positive Action i.e. to make Churches safe from the risk of fire. Reduces Reputational Risk if a disaster occurs. FRA completion achievable for majority Anglican Churches & be compliant. Not a tick box exercise. Must encourage Churches to complete. DAC s engage with local fire & rescue service. (Fire Service Heritage Groups - North West/West Midlands/South East & London/North East). Global Church consider a formal relationship with Primary Authority Sensible & proportionate approach 22
