The legislation around residential PEEPs is changing. Jennings & Barrett's current process for accomodating the need for a PEEP is as follows for all high-rise residential units:
- Leaseholders and residents are invited to complete Resident Profile Surveys, which ask them to declare any possible need for a PEEP or an alternative method of communication of fire procedures.
- Where there is an indication that a PEEP may be necessary, a member of the Operations Team will follow up with that person to confirm that a PEEP is an appropriate step.
- Where the PEEP is deemed to not be necessary, the resident is requested to recomplete their profile survey and remove this request.
- Where a potential PEEP need is identified, the resident is asked to complete a follow up questionnaire, either over the phone or via a webform, to provide more details about their needs.
- All residents completing this questionnaire will be referred to their local fire services' "home safety check" online tool.
- If needed, we will arrange for their local fire service to attend the property alongside a J&B staff member with the appropriate skills in order to perform a person-centred risk assessment and begin the process of understanding their needs in regards to a PEEP.
