The Fire Protection Association launches new fire safety policy manifesto https://lnkd.in/gxDmdWi5 Dr Justin Maltby-Smith, Group Managing Director of BAFE Fire Safety Register and FireQual comments: “BAFE and FireQual fully support the work of the Fire Protection Association and their new fire safety policy manifesto. We are understandably very focused on the element of competency, where organisations should be appropriately Third-Party Certificated via a UKAS Accredited Certification Body to clearly evidence their capability to deliver specific works. This is of course vital when it comes to Fire Risk Assessment, which the FPA have targeted as a key policy area for attention.” #FireSafety #FireRiskAssessment #UKAS #ThirdPartyCertification #BAFE #BAFESP205 #SP205 #DontJustSpecifyVerify
