Forget ghostbusters,
It’s shocking that in 2024 and with the increased awareness of fire safety that some premises still do not have suitable and sufficient procedures and provisions to evacuate mobility impaired persons from upper and lower levels of buildings in the event of an emergency and when lifts can not be used.
We hear a variety of excuses for this non-compliance and potentially putting lives at risk such as:
We thought the Fire and Rescue Service did that – Wrong !
No budget till the new financial year – Really !
We brought the product online and they did not ask if we wanted training - Mmmm
We didn’t know it was a legal requirement – Well it is !
Our Fire Risk Assessor didn’t mention it – Worrying !
Don’t wait for an incident or regulators and enforcing authorities come knocking, contact us for a free consultation, survey or demonstration to ensure you are compliant and all users of your buildings can be evacuated safely.
