A-type are probably the most common extinguisher. A fire extinguisher supplier like us
will advise these are best for homes and businesses. They are engineered for dealing with
fires under common circumstances, including consumables like wood, paper and cloth.
The B-type fire extinguisher is also found in businesses and homes. Any environment
that deals with combustible and flammable liquids should have a B-type extinguisher on
the premises. The category of liquids includes gasoline, grease, oil and oil-based paints.
1. Size
assembly point must be big enough to accommodate all staff
2. Access
easily accessible and have an unobstructed pathway leading to
them.
consider any staff with mobility issues and assess how far they
should be expected to travel, and try to make the journey as quick
and convenient for them as possible.
3. Backup
If your assembly point is unable to be used on the day a fire
strikes, it is vital that there are backup options available
4. Location
should not be located where they may hinder the arrival of the emergency
services e.g. driveways or car parks.
Ensure that the assembly point is well-lit, well-signposted and with no dead
ends.
5. Distance
The assembly point should be a suitable safe distance away from the building,
far enough away to be clear of any possible smoke or heat being generated
from the building.
Too close to the building could mean your staff being affected by heat, smoke
and falling debris, they could also be in the collapse zone should the building
fall down.
6. Other dangers
Don’t automatically assume your are clear of danger once you have left the
afflicted building.
Check for any hazards outside of the premises, such as vehicular movements
and any other foreseeable risks, and make sure your staff are aware of these
potential hazards.
7.Inform and advise
your employees need to be fully aware of the fire evacuation
procedures, and also the locations of the assembly point and
backup assembly points.
8. Fire Wardens
appoint a suitable number of fire wardens for the size and type of
building that you occupy.
An example would be one per floor, with deputies to provide
resilience in times of absence.
Fire Wardens will be responsible for leading evacuation
procedures and liaising with the emergency services.
