I’ve made changes to my storage/stock handling – how can I reduce the risk of fire?

Following any changes to how and where stock is stored, businesses should ensure that entrances and exits are clear at all times. Increased stock levels may result in a higher fire loading, which fire safety systems (such as sprinkler systems) may not be designed for.

Any change to your premises, including how and where stock is handled and stored will require the fire risk assessment to be reviewed.
