Insurance underwriters understand that, for non-domestic premises, the person responsible for fire safety can vary, and in shared premises its likely there’ll be more than one responsible person. However, underwriters would expect essential fire controls and management to be in place.
This webinar, in partnership with Hiscox, focuses on what insurance underwriter’s main considerations for fire risks are, and what separates the good from the bad.
Topics covered include:
- Essential fire controls insurers will expect.
- Types of fire protection available for most commercial premises.
- Common fire inception hazards in the workplace and suitable controls.
- Construction methods and how these affect your fire risks.
