Ravenhall Risk Solutions Ltd, Chartered Independent Insurance Brokers have developed the document below to help landlords and tenants be clear about each other’s health and safety responsibilities to ensure risk is managed and that there is a clear understanding as to who should be doing what.
When it comes to health and safety, many elements of this may have a joint or variable responsibility, but they all will lead to safer, more controlled premises and the avoidance of risk is a benefit to both tenants and landlords alike.
Below is our checklist for commercial landlords to review and discuss with tenants who is responsible for which parts of Health and Safety and risk control which may affect a property. There are separate guidance notes available on our website.
Typically, it will be a tenants responsibility to ensure they have the various listed checks and assessments in place. The property owner is normally responsible for common areas but whatever your arrangement it is important to have clear communication of respective responsibilities.
As commercial Insurance Brokers we provide advice to tenants and landlords alike and as such we are well placed to understand some of the main talking points when it comes to understanding the relationship between landlords and tenants. If you have any questions regarding risk management or Insurance please contact one of our advisors today on 03452163000 or at www.ravenhallgroup.co.uk
