Emergency Evacuation Diagrams | Fire Safety Plans

In Australia, workplace fire safety is governed by various legal requirements to ensure the protection of employees and assets. These regulations have been put in place to reduce the risk of fire and ensure that businesses are prepared in the event of an emergency. Compliance with these legal requirements is essential for businesses and offices to avoid legal repercussions and fines.

The Work Health and Safety (WHS) Regulations mandate the implementation of Evacuation Diagrams, Emergency Procedures, and fire safety inspections. These requirements are put in place to ensure that employees can evacuate the building safely and efficiently in the event of a fire. Evacuation Diagrams clearly outline the escape routes and the location of fire safety equipment, such as fire extinguishers and fire hoses. Emergency Procedures provide guidance on how to respond to a fire, including the steps to take to evacuate the building safely.

There are 3 main factors that make up an effective fire evacuation plan in Australia:

Evacuation Diagrams

Evacuation Diagrams • Fire Inspections • Emergency Procedures

Evacuation diagrams are essential to any fire evacuation plan. They are often situated throughout common areas and general paths of travel in areas where they are easily seen by people.

These diagrams show vital information that is essential in case of emergency. In accordance with AS3745 they must at a minimum show the firefighting safety equipment, designated exit points, emergency assembly areas & evacuation routes. Normally, a workplace must have at least two exit routes, including a secondary escape route, to permit prompt evacuation of employees during an emergency.

The total quantity of evacuation signs and diagrams will be established by the Emergency Planning Committee, also known as the EPC.
