Flat Fire Safety

Fire Safety Information for non-English speaking people

The vision of the Isle of Man Fire and Rescue Service is to make the Island a safer place to live, work and visit’. We aim to achieve this vision by working to reduce the level of risk within the community by providing effective fire safety education and training to the Islands communities and industry. 

One element of this work involves the prevention of fires in domestic and non-domestic premises and the protection of the people who use those buildings by ensuring that suitable fire safety measures are put in place and maintained by the responsible persons. 

The Fire Safety Department is managed by a Divisional Officer and consists of three dedicated teams, the General Fire Safety Team, the Flats Team and the Community Safety Team. It is the Departments role to apply and enforce the current fire safety legislation, The Fire Precautions Act 1975 to all applicable premises on the Island. We also aim to seek out and maintain efficient working partnerships with  other Government Departments and Private Agencies to achieve our vision. 

The Department also provides free goodwill fire safety advice to members of the public when requested and actively encourages feedback regarding our service delivery.
