There are many reasons why a building, or a group of buildings may need to be evacuated including:
•Fires
•Chemical Spills
•Toxic or Explosive Gas Releases
•Explosions
•Violent Behaviour
•Bomb Threats
The larger the building, the more organisation is required to ensure everyone is evacuated effectively and as safely as possible. But regardless of the size or type of building or buildings, or number of employees, every organisation should have a tried and tested evacuation plan.
