Fire Safety During Contractors Operations
Work in Existing BBC Premises

Small works including redecoration and repairs and maintenance can also involve hazardous activities that need to be controlled. The extent to which the above precautions apply in these cases depends upon the nature and scale of the work, and this will need to be considered as part of the assessment undertaken prior to the work commencing.
 
A general 'Permit to Work' scheme should be adopted in order to control works in existing BBC premises. This should identify if additional permits need to be issued e.g. for isolation of fire systems or temporary disablement of other fire protection measures.
