Fire protection management Consulting services

The task

As a third segment in the field of occupational safety, we offer architects and companies comprehensive consulting services for technical, structural and organizational fire protection. In connection with the planning and official approval of construction projects in accordance with the respective state building regulations, we draw up fire protection concepts for the specialist planners. These contain specific fire protection requirements for building components and safety systems to detect fire incidents, prevent/reduce the spread of fire, fight fires and enable rapid and complete evacuation in the event of an emergency. We also carry out all the necessary verifications for compliance with building law fire protection requirements on the basis of the approval planning for the building authority or the expert fire protection inspector.

Review and development of operational fire protection management

The solution

On request, we examine the operational organization for fire and explosion protection in companies and advise on the concrete implementation of organizational measures, for example in the appointment and training of fire protection and evacuation assistants, the preparation of fire protection and/or evacuation regulations and corresponding notices (escape and rescue plans, alarm processes, etc.), the dimensioning and positioning of fire extinguishers, the preparation of explosion protection documents and the review and development of operational fire protection management. At the client's request, we can also appoint a fire safety officer and take on all tasks in accordance with DGUV information 205-003.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions
on the subject of occupational safety / construction site safety / fire protection / hazardous substance management

Ensuring safety in the workplace is one of the employer's most important tasks. It protects itself and its employees from sickness-related absences, avoids difficulties with the employers' liability insurance association and creates an organization that does everything it can to ensure that employees can develop and thrive without worrying about their well-being.

There are far-reaching occupational safety requirements in accordance with the German Occupational Safety Act (ASiG) and the performance obligations of the German Social Accident Insurance. Penalties of up to 25,000 euros are payable for violations. This can also result in the loss of insurance cover from the relevant employers' liability insurance association.

The risk assessment determines the relevant hazards for all employees of a company in connection with their work. Based on these results, suitable individual protective measures are implemented to reduce the risk of accidents and health risks as much as possible.

Construction site safety refers to the monitoring and internal coordination tasks on the construction site. With regard to possible mutual hazards between several companies on a construction site, the main legal basis is the Construction Site Ordinance (BauStellV). As a rule, this is also associated with construction site-specific issues relating to environmental protection.

The accident prevention regulations represent the binding obligations regarding occupational health and safety in the workplace. They apply to every company and every insured person covered by statutory accident insurance. A health and safety coordinator is often appointed to ensure compliance with the accident prevention regulations.

According to the German Insurance Association (GDV), fire damage occurs on average every three minutes in Germany. Fire protection is intended to prevent a fire from starting or spreading due to fire or smoke and to enable people and animals to be rescued and effective extinguishing work to be carried out in the event of a fire.
