Ooops Trolle,
You are on to something, and in ISO 9001:2000 I would say that 5.1a & 6.3a are the clauses you're looking for (See also ISO 9004:2000).
5.1a: communicating to the organization the importance of meeting customer as well as statutory and regulatory requirements,
6.3a: The organization shall determine, provide and maintain the infrastructure needed to achieve conformityto product
requirements. Infrastructure includes, as applicable
a) buildings, workspace and associated utilities,
There are a few things to consider, though:
1. You can do your level best to prevent a fire from occurring and still have one. Freak accidents can and will happen given time. Could you have done more to prevent the incident?
2. You will have legal reqirements to consider. We both know about Swedish law being tough in that respect. Do you have a Health & Safety management system going? If so, you can point your QMS in that direction. (I do). If not, you still have to follow the letter of the law (not to mention the guidelines from your insurance company. They will certainly want to havea say in this matter).
3. Do you have an EMS? Clause 4.4.7 in ISO 14001 (Emergency preparedness and response) is quite strict about taking precautions, and a fire is clearly not good for the environment. Same again: If you have it, you can point the QMS in that direction.
