Review the hotel fire risk assessment
A current written assessment, fixes done, and staff who know the plan.
- Book a competent fire risk assessor
- Walk the building with the assessor
- Check fire doors close fully and are not wedged. Most people forget this: Wedged fire doors are the most common enforcement finding in hotels
- Put each action on a dated list with an owner
- Test alarms, lights and extinguishers and log the tests
- Run a night time fire drill
- Update personal evacuation plans for guests who need help
- Sign off the assessment and the action plan (General manager signs off)
