Conclusion / Detailed Action Plan

This document is a plan to prepare for workplace emergencies. By auditing the workplace,

training employees, obtaining and maintaining the necessary equipment, and by assigning

responsibilities, human life and company resources will be preserved. The intent of this plan is

to ensure all employees a safe and healthful workplace. Those employees assigned specific

duties under this plan will be provided the necessary training and equipment to ensure their

safety. This plan applies to emergencies that could be reasonably expected in our workplace

such as fire/smoke.

FIRE PREVENTION PLAN

Emergency Evacuation Training Requirements

All employees must be trained in safe evacuation and notification procedures in cases of actual or fire
drill. The training must address escape routes, notification of appropriate response agencies, instructions
on activating a building fire alarm system, how and when to use a fire extinguisher, and what should be
done after evacuating a building. The drills shall be conducted to familiarize the staff and occupants with
the sound of the fire alarm and to initiate the appropriate, desired response.

Emergency Exit Requirements

These regulations apply to not only exit doors but also to the exit access (corridors and stairwells that lead
to the exit) and the exit discharge (the area past the exit doors which may include exterior ramps, steps,
fire escapes and sidewalks.) Exits are permanent, unobstructed means of egress that must lead to a street,
walkway, or other open space outside the building. They can, under certain circumstances, lead directly
into another building or area of refuge provided that they then lead directly to the outside. Exit signs are
usually red in color but are permitted to be green. The signs are required to be self-illuminated or may be
lit by battery pack or generator in case of power outage.

Fire – Reporting
The following procedures shall be followed when someone discovers a fire in a building, regardless of
how large the fire is:

1) Close the door to the room where the fire is located. This will confine the fire to a smaller area.
2) Activate the closest fire alarm system. Pull stations are usually located next to an exit or stairwell door
3) Call (02) 426-0219 to report the location of the fire. You or someone you designate must make the
telephone call from a safe location as quickly as possible.
4) Extinguish or Evacuate
5) Do not re-enter the building
Fire Extinguishers
Fixed fire extinguishing/suppression systems are commonly used to protect areas containing valuable or
critical equipment such as data processing rooms, telecommunication switches, and process control
rooms. Their main function is to quickly extinguish a developing fire and alert occupants before extensive
damage occurs by filling the protected area with a gas or chemical extinguishing agent.
For health and safety reasons only persons who have been trained in the handling, selection, and use of a
fire extinguisher shall operate them. The use of the wrong type of extinguisher could cause the fire to
spread or the user to become seriously injured.
