What's the current going rate for an RA on a licenced premises ? Nothing too fancy, just enough to satisfy the annual review. Fire assessment has already been done and passed.

It would still take an experienced between 8 and 16 hrs including organisation research. That is likely to be a minimum £800 for something like a pukkha job. The phrase just enough to satisfy the annual review rings bells however and I would be looking closely at the suitability of the client who wishes to employ me on this basis. Bob

When you say Annual review does that mean you already have risk assessments? If so why can't you review them yourself if you know what the work is all about? Otherwise have a look at this http://www.hse.gov.uk/si...-health-safety/index.htm

Chris I'm understanding the OP to be talking about Licensed Premises Risk Assessments - These are a diferent kettle of fish to normal RAs as we normally refer to. Just shows that instructions can be misunderstood by operatives even if supervisor thinks they were clear:-) Bob

Tester You will need to improve your precision in stating a question to be fully competent as a consultant. We tend to forget that certain phrases have very particular meanings and I am still not sure what type of Risk Assessments that you are asking about. Also one should learn to be very up front about what one is doing, if the client is not clear or finds out an unstated reason for a question then all trust is lost. At the end of the day a consultant has to be a trusted adviser if they are to truly succeed. It is these people who command the highest rates. They do not have to know everything BUT the client knows that all questions and problems will be properly assessed and solutions offerred. You will know you have succeeded when the client asks you about things not centre court or out of your field entirely. That is why I have done LRPA in the past. Bob
