Effective fire evacuation planning is essential for safeguarding lives in an emergency.
Our Fire Evacuation Planning and Personal Emergency Evacuation Plan (PEEP) Services provide businesses with customised evacuation strategies and support for individuals who may need assistance during an evacuation.
We ensure your business is prepared, compliant, and that all occupants can safely exit in case of fire.
What are Fire Evacuation Planning and PEEP Services?
Fire Evacuation Planning involves developing clear, structured procedures to ensure a safe and efficient evacuation in the event of a fire. Personal Emergency Evacuation Plans (PEEPs) are tailored plans for individuals who require specific assistance, such as those with mobility, hearing, or visual impairments, ensuring they can safely evacuate during an emergency.
