All workers have a right to work in places where risks to their health and safety are properly controlled. Health and safety is about stopping you getting hurt at work or ill through work. Your employer is responsible for health and safety, but you must help.
You can get advice on fire safety from the Fire and Rescue Services or your workplace fire officer.
