 I. Plan Overview

A fire emergency evacuation plan (FEEP) is a written document which includes the action to
be taken by all staff in the event of fire and the arrangements for calling the fire brigade. It can
include any relevant information in relation to the FEEP.

General Fire Notice For small premises this could take the form of a simple fire action sign
posted in positions where staff and relevant persons can read it and become familiar with its
contents.

Staff Fire Notice High fire risks or large premises will need more detailed emergency
evacuation plan which takes account of the findings of the fire risk assessment, the staff
significantly at risk and their location. In addition, notices giving clear and concise instructions
of the routine to be followed in case of fire should be prominently displayed.

In most cases you should nominate persons to implement the fire action plan and give them
adequate training in fire fighting and evacuation procedures. The following items should be
considered where appropriate:

 Fire evacuation strategy

 Action on discovering a fire
 Action on hearing the fire alarm
 Calling the fire brigade
 Power/process isolation
 Identification of key escape routes
 Fire wardens/marshals
 Places of assembly and roll call
 Fire fighting equipment provided
 Training required
 Personal Emergence Evacuation Plan
 Liaison with emergency services
II. LAYOUT OF PLAN
A. PRE FIRE INCIDENT PREPAREDNESS
(before)

With Your Family

✔ Know your evacuation routes, transportation and a place to stay with family or friends outside
of the evacuation zone;

✔ Set a family emergency communications plan: set up a family meeting spot and teach your
family what to do when they hear a smoke alarm;

✔ Ensure everyone knows how to call 911;

✔ Teach your family about fire prevention and safety;

✔ Build an emergency preparedness kit or get one ready-made;

✔ Ensure that all household members know at least two ways to escape from every room in your
home.

✔ Store supplies so you can quickly grab and go in case of evacuation; and,

✔ Practice your home escape plan at least twice a year.

With Your Home

✔ Install the right number of smoke alarms, test them once a month and replace the batteries
once a year;

✔ Store important documents and personal priceless items in a safe place, easily accessible;

✔ Form a fire resistant zone at least 30 feet from your home. Gather and clear items around the
house that are potentially flammable, including: dead vegetation, leaves and debris;

✔ Store flammable or combustible materials in safety containers away from the home;

✔ Move your BBQ propane tank away from the house; and,

✔ Build any future repairs out of fire-resistant materials.

B. (IMMEDIATELY DURING THE FIRE)

While it’s most important to prioritize the physical safety of you and your loved ones, if there is
time before you evacuate, you can also take some small actions to help the firefighters. But if
you are asked to evacuate, leave immediately.

✔ Stay alert and aware for evacuation instructions from EAS, Weather Radio, your local law and
fire officials;

✔ If you see a fire approaching or if you’re trapped, call 911;

✔ Close all windows, doors and vents inside your home;

✔ Move flammable furniture, especially outdoor furniture into the centre of the home away from
windows and doors;

✔ To make your house more visible in smoke, turn on outside lights and leave a light on in every
room;
✔ Wear N95 masks to protect your lungs from harmful particles;

✔ Stop, drop and roll if you or your family’s clothes catch on fire;

✔ Always stay with your family and pets and keep your disaster safety kit on hand; and,

✔ Remain calm and evacuate immediately: drive at regular speeds with windows rolled up and
headlights on.

II. STEPS AND PROCEDURE (AS A RESCUER)

1. Inform people in the immediate area to evacuate.

2. If you witness a fire, activate the nearest building fire alarm and exit the building.
 3. When safe, immediately call 911.
4. If the fire is small (wastebasket sized or smaller) and you have been trained to use a fire
extinguisher, you may attempt to extinguish the fire. Make sure that you have a safe exit
from the fire area and use the buddy system. If you cannot put out the fire in 5 seconds,
evacuate.
5. On your way out, warn others.
6. Move away from fire and smoke. Close doors and windows behind you, if time permits.
7. Before opening a door, place the back of your hand on the door to check for heat. If cool,
slowly check the door handle for heat and proceed to exit.
8. If the door is hot, do not open it. Find or create an alternative exit (windows). If no other
exit is available and you only see smoke, open the door slowly, move to a crawling
position, staying low, and quickly crawl to an exit.
9. If the door is hot and fire is present, keep the door shut. Place any type material at the
base of the door to keep smoke from entering the room.
10. Exit using stairs. Do not use elevators during a fire.
11. Evacuate the building as soon as the alarm sounds and proceed to the designated
evacuation zone.
12. Do not re-enter the building or work area until you have been instructed to do so by the
emergency responders.
13. To use a fire extinguisher, remember the acronym PASS:

P - PULL safety pin from handle.

A - AIM nozzle at base of fire.
S - SQUEEZE the trigger handle.
S - SWEEP from side to side
IV. ROLES AND RESPONSE TEAM
(who are assigned to each task)
A. FIREFIGHTERS
ROLES: Are responsible for directly combating the fire rescuing individuals and protecting
property.
MEMBERS:
B. EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES
ROLES: A personnel who provide medical assistance to individuals who may have been
injured during the fire incident.
MEMEBERS:
C. SEARCH AND RESCUE TEAMS
ROLES: Trained individuals who are responsible for searching each floor of the building to
ensure everyone has been evacuated safely.
MEMBERS:

D. COMMUNICATION TEAM
ROLES: Responsible for communicating with occupants and updating them on the
evacuation process.
MEMBERS:
E. LAW ENFORCEMENT
ROLES:
MEMBERS:
V. PROCEDURE FOR ROLE COORDINATION
These plans outline strategies for managing office tasks that are relevant to various office
workers.:

A. COMMAND AND CONTROL CENTER is responsible for continuously monitoring and

analyzing various data sources, systems, and processes to maintain situational awareness and
identify potential issues or threats.
B. REGULAR COMMUNICATION enhances coordination by conveying more information, and
surprisingly, information overload does not pose a significant issue in our experiments.
C. COLLABORATION WITH ETERNAL AGENCIES a teams can work independently using
pre-defined frameworks and methods, such as submitting design requests, but collaboration is
more time
