people are at risk from a fire, it will be necessary that a safe route from their
place of work is provided. If early fire detection is available and staff know
what to do in the event of the alarm being raised, then normal ways in / out of
the building may prove acceptable. In larger buildings additional escape routes
may have to be provided. To help you decide if escape routes are satisfactory
there are some basic rules to be remembered:- Escape routes - length and width
Fire Escape Times
Fire Exits and Fire DoorsProvision of Fire Fighting Equipment
