Is a Fire Risk Assessment a Legal Requirement in the West Midlands?
Yes — without exception. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies to every non-domestic premises across England and Wales, including all West Midlands boroughs. This means if you are responsible for a workplace, rented property, HMO, block of flats, or any communal area, you are legally required to have a documented fire risk assessment carried out by a competent person.
If you employ five or more people, the assessment must be written down. If you are found to be non-compliant, the West Midlands Fire Service can issue Enforcement Notices, Prohibition Notices (closing your premises immediately), and prosecute responsible persons — with unlimited fines or imprisonment in serious cases.
Everything Included in Your West Midlands Fire Risk Assessment

We identify every person on your premises who may be at elevated risk — including disabled individuals, elderly residents, contractors, and those unfamiliar with the building layout — and tailor evacuation strategies accordingly.
