From escape route to assembly point, from the drawing to the head count
The planned scope is designed to keep the escape routes on floor plans, the exits, the assembly points and the head count after evacuation, in the same record.
This page is written for the team that prepares evacuation drawings and runs the head count at drills.
What it does
An evacuation is measured not by the drawing but by whether everyone reached the assembly point. The planned scope aims to tie the drawing to the head count in one record.
- Drawings kept floor by floorThe escape routes, the exits and the drawing revision of each floor are planned to sit in their own record.
- Each assembly point has a wardenThe warden of each assembly point, and which departments report to it, are to be recorded.
- The head count runs on the staff listThe count after evacuation is planned to run against the staff list, so that a missing person is visible.
- Clearance time enters the recordThe clearance time and the bottlenecks observed are to be held in the drill record.
- Visitors and contractors are not forgottenVisitors and contractor staff on site that day are planned to be part of the count as well.
How it connects
The evacuation record runs together with the emergency guides and tools.
The drawing on the wall, the count in the record
Once the evacuation drawing is on the wall the job is treated as done; yet what a drill actually reveals is who was late and which exit became a bottleneck.
The planned scope therefore aims to keep the drawing, the assembly points and the count in one record, and to make the drill observations an input to the next revision of the drawing.
