Updating of fire safety requirements based on the risk-based approach

Introduction. Analysis of contemporary trends and issues on improving regulatory oversight of activities in Europe and Russia showed that the society has shown increasing concern about the high risk of harm to economic activities in the form of lost profit from inaccurate and excessive regulation of relations in the model of the control and supervision activities, which are developing a variety of programs that bring private yet only fragmentary positive results, but they change the inaccurate and excessive essence of traditional control and supervisory activities.

The main (analytical) part. In Europe and in Russia there is implemented a relative assessment of risk of harm (the establishment of the conditional risk categories) in the frequency of scheduled audits, which was called “a risk-based approach”. A conditional approach to assessing the risk of harm to protected values cannot lead to clarification of the subj ect and elimination of the excessive nature of control and supervision.

Significant practical results of the reform of control and supervision will be achieved only as a result of a large-scale transition to a risk-oriented model of control and supervision, the essence of which is to identify mandatory requirements based on the calculation and scenario assessments of the risks of harm to protected values.

Theoretical and practical bases the risk-oriented model of control and supervision in the field of fire safety developed by a distinguished specialist, educator, and philosopher Vasily Ivanovich Kozlachkov that were used to develop the “Project of updating of mandatory fire safety requirements” for Priority programme “Reform of control and Supervisory activities”.

The paper presents a Description of the project of updating the mandatory requirements of fire safety, which implements the formula: first, to estimate the amount of damage to protected values, then select (choose or develop) commensurate with the damage of technical requirements of fire safety.

Conclusion. The implementation of the project of updating the mandatory requirements of fire safety will significantly increase the level of protection of people and property, improve the quality of control and supervision activities and reduce administrative pressure on entrepreneurs.
