This session was recorded at the IFSM technical meeting at Fire Safety Matters Live London in March 2026. Steven Lakin addresses misconceptions about fire safety in construction, presenting 15 essential steps and key requirements based on legislation and guidance including the Regulatory Reform Fire Safety Order and CDM regulations.
He emphasises the importance of clearly defining responsibility, implementing proper hot works permits and fire watch procedures, and moving the industry toward consistent compliance rather than accepting the status quo of recurring fire incidents on construction sites.
