Fire regulations impose a legal responsibility on all employers in Ireland to achieve an appropriate standard of Fire Safety in the workplace. Under the Fire Services Act 1981 and the Health and Safety Act 2005, employers can face imprisonment and fines of up to €3m. In order to ensure compliance with fire regulations, all workplaces should be assessed in accordance with Fire Safety guidance documents and codes of practice.
