What is the Building Safety Act?

You don't want to get caught out by the Building Safety Act. As a Building or Facilities Manager, you could be seen as non-compliant with Government legislation and be putting yourself and your residents at risk. You could also be exposing yourself to fines, feed, court action and even injury or worse. After the Grenfell tragedy, legislation was introduced to improve standards and safety of buildings throughout their lifecycle. This was needed to ensure another tragedy of this scale never happens again. The act covers everything from fire safety through to how often certain areas of a building need to be inspected and maintained.
