The government is seeking views on the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 to ensure it is fit-for-purpose.
The call for evidence is seeking views from employers and business owners on fire safety in workplaces in England.
This comes following Dame Judith Hackitt’s Independent Review on Building Regulation and Fire Safety, which was commissioned by the government after the Grenfell Tower fire.
The order places legal duties on those responsible for the safety of people using business premises.
Minister for Policing and the Fire Service Nick Hurd said: "To help keep people safe, we want to ensure the Fire Safety Order is fit for purpose. To do this, we need to understand how it is working on the ground and make informed decisions in the future."
The order covers all non-domestic premises, as well as the parts of residential buildings used in common, such as corridors and stairwells.
Under the order, those responsible for fire safety in regulated premises include employers, business owners, landlords, occupiers and anyone else in control of the premises, such as building and facilities managers.
The call for evidence will run for eight weeks until 31 July 2019, and an analysis of responses will be published and inform the government’s next steps later this year.
