Evacuation of Disabled Persons from Buildings
This guidance provides information on the fire evacuation of disabled persons from buildings and will assist employers, organisations and fire safety enforcing authorities to consider disabled persons in a positive way and to deal with their evacuation in a practical, equality based manner.
The guide is not intended for dwellings or for premises which, as part of their normal operation, provide care and treatment to disabled persons on a regular basis, such as hospitals and care homes. Nevertheless much of the content will be of interest to people who manage care or treatment premises.
The guide is available in HTML and PDF format as well as being searchable from the search page:
