All businesses should carry out a fire evacuation drill at least once a year, preferably twice.
Although your fire drill can be managed by your designated ‘Responsible Person’ or Fire Safety Manager, we recommend enlisting expert help from time to time.
Carrying out an organised fire evacuation drill in this way is especially beneficial to larger organisations, or premises with vulnerable residents.
An organised fire evacuation drill will help teach your fire safety team the correct procedures and identify any weak spots in your evacuation strategy, as well as providing recommendations for improvements.
Our team provides organised evacuations across London & the South East, for all types & sizes of business.
