DSEAR Risk Assessments

Ensure DSEAR Compliance with Expert Risk Assessments by Delta Fire Engineering’s CompEx-Certified In-house Consultants

If your business is handling flammable substances, combustible dusts, or oxidising agents you may be legally required to comply with the Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations 2002 (DSEAR).   


What is a dangerous substance?

A dangerous substance is any substance used or stored in the workplace that could harm an individual as the result of a flammable atmosphere being created and it finding a source of ignition. These products consist of flammable liquids in the form of solvents, combustible dusts/powders and oxidising liquids and gases.


Delta Fire Engineering provides bespoke DSEAR risk assessments across the UK to help you identify hazards, stay compliant, and keep your employees safe.


Why do you need a DSEAR risk assessment?

Regulation 5 of the Approved Code of Practice L138, which can be found on the HSE Website requires all employers to carry out a suitable and sufficient risk assessment to cover the following;


  • Identify any dangerous substances and processes where they are used in the workplace and the risks they pose.
  • Put control measures in place to remove the risk or where this cannot done, control them.
  • Control or reduce the effects of an explosion within the workplace.
  • Classify areas that dangerous substances are used or stored. 
  • Where explosive atmospheres could be created, avoid ignition sources.
  • In areas where an explosive atmosphere may be created, careful selection of intrinsically safe equipment.
