Legal Requirements

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 came into effect in April 2006. This places the onus on building operators to appoint a responsible person for fire safety and this responsible person needs to have a fire risk assessment carried out. A risk assessment should include any kitchen extract system within or passing through a building and should identify fire risks and ways of removing or reducing the risks. Failure to carry out a risk assessment and undertake risk reduction measures could, in the event of injury or death lead to an HSE prosecution of the individual(s) and company responsible. EC directives incorporated into the above legislation require that ventilation systems are properly cleaned and tested by a professional contractor.

Health and safety regulations demand high standards of cleanliness for all areas of commercial kitchens. The combined risk of legal action and damage to reputation can be greatly reduced by regular Blitz Group Ltd kitchen equipment cleaning contracts. We are accredited members of BESA and are rigorously inspected and assessed annually to ensure reputability, quality works, health & safety standards in this industry.
