Hi Guys,
Can anyone point in the right direction please?
I have spent 2 hours without success trying to find out how many "WORKPLACE FIRES" there are in the UK each year.
I have been around in circles and I am now at the point of crying. Does anyone know where I can find there please?

Hay Boden that you for finding me something to do on this damp weekend ha ha. I almost feel like crying as well but its the rain doing that to me ? I'm clearing out my shed and finding stuff to put on Ebay.

Try this link

https://www.gov.uk/gover...2-13__final_version_.pdf

Chapter 3 page 37 mentions Other buildings and includes various types of workplaces.

I hope this is what you are looking for?

Cheers mate,

I saw this and downloaded this document.
It cheeses me off that they won't separate WORKPLACE fires. It is thrown in with stats from garden sheds and garages which an employer is not necessarily responsible for.
Finding fire stats has always been a pain in the Henry Halls.
Thanks for trying anyway.
