FIRE EVACUATION PLANS

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (RRO) requires almost every business and residential block of flats in the UK to have a Fire Emergency Evacuation Plan (FEEP)

A Fire Emergency Evacuation Plan (FEEP) is a diagram which that indicates what actions are to be taken by occupants in the event that the fire alarm in the premises sounds.

Concept 20 Can survey and produce a FEEP for your business or block of flats

Upon appointment to produce a Fire emergency evacuation plan for your building, Concept 20 will:

Perform a full building survey

This is to record the building layout, room sizes and escape distances etc..

Produce a FEEP

The plan must show information such as:

A clear & easy to read floor plan
Action upon discovering a fire
Actions taken upon hearing the fire alarm
Clear passageways to escape routes
Your current location in the building

Location of Fire break points
Assembly points
Location of Fire fighting equipment
Fire evacuation strategy
Fire escape signage

Calling the fire brigade
Fire wardens/marshals
Enough exits for people to escape
Location of emergency doors
Emergency lighting

Upon completion of the FEEP Your local fire and rescue authority should check the plan for compliance as well visit the premises to check the fire risk assessment and fire prevention measures are appropriate. & take action if they think your fire safety measures are not adequate.
