Evacuation

Plan

Plan for both the evacuation and resurgence of your premises as a result of a major incident.  Most premises require an evacuation plan under the fire regulations but it is also worth considering how you intend to allow your staff back into the building in a planned and phased approach.  Your plans should include inspections for fire safety and compliance with codes of practice and regulations.

Drills

Premises with fire certificates require evacuation drills and procedures to be followed and undertaken on a regular basis.  If your premises are not covered by a fire certificate you should also ensure that these principles are undertaken.
