In the unfortunate event of a fire breaking out, it’s vital that everybody knows what to do and how to safely leave the building.

Emergency procedure plans should only be produced after a fire risk assessment has taken place. Your emergency procedures should be based on these findings. It should be easily available for staff, occupiers, visitors, and enforcing authorities to see and be clear and easy to understand.

An emergency plan typically consists of the following:

  • What to do when a fire is discovered
  • Alerting the rest of the building of a fire
