PAS 79 compliant. Every assessment is carried out to PAS 79 — the UK standard for fire risk assessment methodology and reporting — so you get speed and compliance together.
Vulnerable Occupants, Staff-Led Evacuation & Audit Response
Children cannot be assumed to understand or self-manage evacuation. Nursery and childcare premises therefore carry a higher management burden than ordinary commercial buildings — child age and dependency, sleeping and napping arrangements, staff ratios, fire wardens, alarm coverage, escape-door and child-gate arrangements, and daily management controls all have to be assessed together.
We support operational settings responding to a fire-service audit, as well as newly built and refurbished nurseries needing a pre-opening assessment before children occupy the building.
