what now®???

FIRE & EMERGENCY EVACUATION TRAINING AID

Having alternative escape routes is all well and good, BUT.........

  • How many people know where they are?

  • Are they always available and useable?

  • Can people with disabilities find them?

  • Can people with disabilities use them?

Human beings are creatures of habit and generally use the most familiar route in and out of a building, often passing one or more fire exits in the process. But what happens when their usual route is barred or blocked?

 

To ensure that people know where alternative exits are, the normal or ‘familiar’ route should be occasionally ‘blocked’ so people learn alternative routes, thus being less likely to panic in a real emergency if the route they expect to use is unavailable.

 

Traditionally people are tasked to physically obstruct an exit route, waving their arms around and trying to persuade everyone that this is where the emergency is, and “please would everyone mind finding an alternative way out?” This leads to all sorts of difficulties; arguments can ensue and when large numbers of evacuees are involved it can be difficult to get them all to move in the opposite direction.
