In the event of a fire, having a fire evacuation plan is very important. This plan will help people get out of the building in an orderly and safe way, keep the fire from spreading, and give firefighters helpful information. Before doing any other emergency tasks, make sure your life is secure.
When you see a fire, pull the fire alarm to tell everyone else in the building. Look for a phone and call the fire department for help if you need it. Give them the information they need so that they can help you right away.
There are many reasons to have fire evacuation plans; some are discussed below.
- Create a Clear Chain Of Command
Because of the chaos of job settings, most people desire to run and get out of the building as quickly as possible. This puts them and their belongings at risk of being hurt or damaged. The staff needs calm, levelheaded leaders who can coordinate essential tasks and ensure everyone gets out safely.
