Health, Safety and Fire

Building safety culture has dominated change in our sector over recent years. To help managing agents consolidate their understanding of current requirements and best practice in health and safety we’ve created a comprehensive new guide for residential property managers on health and safety.

This guidance provides information for Managing Agents on the Electronic Communications Code and the management of risk where mobile base stations are located on residential premises. Although most mobile base station installations are designed to be ‘safe by design’, in some cases there will be exclusion zones that need to be managed. In all cases employers need to assess the risk of exposure to electromagnetic radiation associated with the equipment and keep a record of the assessment.
