Questions worth asking before you hire

• For fire risk assessments and fire door work, ask whether the assessor is on a recognised register (such as IFSM, IFE or a third-party certification scheme like BAFE SP205 or FIRAS) and how long reports take to turn around.
• For fire alarms, extinguishers and emergency lighting, ask whether the firm is third-party certificated (for example BAFE or NSI) and which British Standard they service to.
• For health and safety support, ask about the consultant’s qualifications (for example NEBOSH or Chartered IOSH membership) and whether they are on the OSHCR register.
