SURVEY

• A measured survey is undertaken by an experienced surveyor.
• From the survey information a CAD (Computer Aided Design) technician produces a plan using the latest design software.

Fire Plan and Fire Risk Assessment

• The Fire Precautions (Workplace) Regulations 1999 impose health and safety requirements on fire precautionary matters in the workplace (including shared areas and means of access in the workplace).
• Any person who employs staff is responsible for complying with the requirements of the regulations in the premises in which they occupy.
• GPB Design work with leading risk management companies, to offer fire safety solutions to the licensed trade.
• Annual reviews can be conducted by the client with assistance from their local fire officer alternatively GPB Design can arrange to review your Fire Plan and Fire Risk Assessment for you.
• A backup copy of the fire plan and fire risk assessment will be kept by ourselves in case the original is lost or future amendments are required.

Health and Safety Risk Assessment

• The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 require employees to complete risk assessments.
• The function of such an assessment is to identify potential hazards within the premises and then to determine the degree of risk presented by each. The degree of risk can be used to prioritise control measures, which will ensure the risk of injury is reduced to an acceptable level.
• Once hazards have been identified and if not practical or cost effective to remove it, control measures are suggested.
• GPB Design work with leading risk management companies, to offer health and safety solutions to the licensed trade.
• Annual reviews can be conducted by the client with assistance from their local Health and Safety officer alternatively GPB Design can arrange to review your Health and Safety Risk Assessment for you.
• A backup copy of the Health and Safety Risk Assessment will be kept by ourselves in case the original is lost or future amendments are required.

Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) Access Survey

• The Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) aims to end discrimination of disabled people in respect of employment, access to goods, facilities and services. Our comprehensive DDA access survey concentrates primarily on addressing the requirements of DDA to remove physical barriers by making reasonable alterations
  
• Our DDA access report consists of an access survey for the premises, access survey findings, and an action plan.
  
• Completing access surveys is now identified in the Code of Practice for Part 3 of the DDA as the best tool for the planned improvement of services and premises.
  
• Disabled people have an estimated spending power of £40 Billion and with an ageing population in which people over 50 are more likely to have the greatest disposable income (although more likely to have impairments), it makes clear business sense to make your services and premises accessible to everyone
  
• A backup copy of the access survey report will be kept by ourselves in case your original is lost or future amendments are required.
