National review of community risk methodology across UK Fire and Rescue Service

FSEC is the current toolkit available for risk management. The first set of questions focused on the current usefulness in risk management. The first question explored historical engagement in whether the FRS had ever used the FSEC toolkit. From this, 36 FRSs responded that they had used the toolkit, while 6 FRSs reported never having used the FSEC.

The next question asked how much FRSs still use FSEC in risk management. Figure 5 shows that 19 FRSs report not using the toolkit at all, while a further 7 did not respond. While two FRSs report using the toolkit very frequently, it is evident that the toolkit plays a very small role in current community risk management.
