Last year, Housing, Management & Maintenance magazine conducted a research initiative of its readers to find out the most common causes of fire risk in their housing stock, and the barriers they have faced in addressing them.
This study revealed a significant level of risk among our reader’s properties – with respondents reporting lengthy delays in addressing potentially lethal fire risk assessments, a shocking number who had been put in a position where it would be uncomfortable to report safety issues to a superior, and some respondents losing trust in product manufacturers post-Grenfell.
Here, our latest research study aims to find out if – a year on – our readership believe the sector has improved when it comes to fire safety, and how recent legislative changes have impacted their businesses.
