Evacuation Chair Plan
Is this considered a reasonable adjustment under UK Law?
Overview
Must have PEEP.
For Employees
You cannot work on an upper floor without a safe way down in a fire. Demand a PEEP (Personal Emergency Evacuation Plan) immediately.
For Employers
If the lifts fail in a fire, how do they get out? Failing to provide an evac chair is a major legal liability.
Key Considerations
- Trained colleagues needed.
- Regular drifts.
