This course is for new and experienced enforcement professionals who work in cross‑agency environments and deal with shared or multi‑occupied housing where housing and fire safety regimes cross paths. It focuses on investigations in the specific context of houses in multiple occupation (HMOs), showing how housing and fire safety frameworks operate together in practice under the Housing Act 2004, the Management of Houses in Multiple Occupation (England) Regulations 2006, and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 , alongside other relevant primary and subordinate legislations.
You will develop a clear understanding of how to approach investigations in HMOs, with a focus on how housing and fire safety regimes interact in real cases. Through case studies, you will learn to navigate overlapping frameworks, apply key fire‑safety benchmarks (including LACORS guidance, HHSRS Operating Guidance and Worked Examples, amongst other statutory and non-statutory industry recognised documents), obtain supporting evidence from professional witnesses, and plan and carry out fire‑safety‑focused investigations in housing health and safety cases that can withstand legal and technical scrutiny..

Informacje
This course explains how overlapping housing and fire safety regimes operate in HMOs, helping deepen understanding in both sectors and clarify where each framework starts, ends and interacts in practice. From the first session the training is intense but practical, with a strong focus on real‑world inspection work, gathering and testing evidence, and using intelligence to inform proportionate, defensible enforcement decisions.
