Fire Escape Plan Templates

A fire safety plan helps you identify routes through a building or home in the event of a fire or other emergency. It outlines how people should escape a burning house or building or evacuate when a fire threatens the structure. You should also include items you'd want to take in the event of an evacuation and a meeting point or communication plan in the event you're separated. Creating a fire safety plan should be part of any fire pre-planning you do. Everyone in your office or family should be familiar with the plan and be prepared to follow the plan either if a smoke alarm goes off or you're requested to evacuate by authorities or emergency personnel.
