What does your kind of business actually need?

Commercial kitchens, gas, hot oil, public access: the highest-risk small-business setting, and the obligations that come with it.

The public at night, a kitchen, a cellar full of gas, and often a home upstairs. The accommodation decides how heavy it gets.

Public premises, electrical loads, fire escape routes, and the assessments a shop floor actually needs.

Chemicals every day, electrical tools next to water, the public in the chair. Light compliance, heavily sold to.

Often called low risk, and it is. The familiar obligations still apply, and a few quietly catch people out.

Sleeping accommodation changes everything: fire, legionella and assessment depth all step up.

Showers and hearts. Water hygiene at the higher tier, equipment under PUWER, and first aid that genuinely matters.

Fire load, forklifts, racking and height. Standard premises compliance on a three-year electrical cycle; the risk is in the work.

PUWER, COSHH, noise and lifting equipment. The most specific regulations of any sector, and the least helped by a package.

Lifts under LOLER, fuel and paint under DSEAR, compressors under PSSR. The equipment carries the risk, not the building.

Compliance that travels with you: CDM, RAMS, asbestos awareness, short-interval PAT, and the cards that get you on site.

Sleeping risk plus vulnerable occupants. The one sector where annual everything is close to right.

Children who cannot self-evacuate, statutory paediatric first aid, and what Ofsted and the fire service actually inspect.

Vulnerable occupants, asbestos in older buildings, and a broad training and assessment burden.

Water lines and medical locations. Legionella at the clinical tier and an EICR that has to know section 710.

Licensing conditions, the statutory gas and electrical dates, fire detection to BS 5839-6, and what the council inspects.

Four statutory items, a legionella assessment you write yourself, and the agent add-ons the law does not require.
