In the example of a pub with staff accomodation, would the accomodation unit fall under the scope of the RRO 2005? It is domestic (therefore falling outside of the scope), but they are also under a contract of employment. 🤔 Thanks Edited by user 08 August 2023 15:32:33(UTC)

If it is purely accommodation with nothing to do with the pub i.e. storage of beer crates or boxes of crisps then the FRA stops at the boundary. Any access to the accommodation from the pub will have to be 1 hour fire protection including any fire escape route through the pub, with fire alarm sounders audible inside the accommodation.

I agree with FS101- the flat isn't covered by the FSO but the access will be if shared
If the access is thru the pub, good luck achieving 1 hour FR, especially if the staircase discharges into the bar as so many do . That is where the fun begins 🙄

Thanks for the replies. For my own knowledge - although the flat won't necessarily be covered by the RRO, the occupiers would still be relevant persons and therefore must be considered as part of the building's FRA?
Also, regarding the 1 hour separation between 'premises', my understanding was that 60 minute separation is required, unless the AFD system is linked between them, in which case 30 mins would be acceptable?
Cheers!
