Fire Risk Assessment - Food Concessions
In order to comply with fire safety legislation you MUST complete a Fire Risk Assessment of your unit(s).  It needs to identify  the fire hazards and persons at risk.  You must endeavour to remove or reduce these risks and protect people form fire.  Failure to comply with this requirement may result in you being removed from the site.  You must be able to answer YES to the following questions.

You must undertake a Fire Risk Assessment for your unit, which must be suitable for the circumstances. You do not need to use this form and may use another method if you wish, however, this form is considered to be suitable for most standard food units where customers do not enter the unit.

This document does not preclude you from possible prosecution or removal from the site by the organisers should a subsequent inspection reveal unsatisfactory standards.
