A fire risk management plan is key to keeping your business safe in case of an emergency. A fire risk management plan outlines all arrangements for the implementation of fire safety standards as well as monitoring, controls, and reviewing fire safety. 

Fire risk management plans are there to ensure businesses follow all safety guidelines set out by legislation. Failure to meet these requirements could result in disciplinary action. 

Here at Vraxis we are committed to providing businesses with the safety and security they need. Whether it is fire safety training, advice with evacuation plans, or fire safety consulting, our team can help. 

An evacuation plan is a full step by step guide you have set out in case of an emergency. Evacuation plans include details around fire exits, evacuation routes, first aid information and more. 

There are many different reasons why a building evacuation may occur, such as fire, building issues, and other threats. An evacuation plan enables businesses to have the relevant information on how to evacuate a building safely and without stress. 

General emergency evacuation plans, often referred to as GEEP are designed to provide visitors with the information they need to become familiar with the layout and evacuation process. This can also include information for those with mobility issues as the route to evacuating a building may be slightly different. 

General emergency evacuation plans also include information on available equipment and those in charge. Lists of communication devices and other details will also be included. 

Personal emergency evacuation plans, otherwise known as PEEPs, are designed to document how people will evacuate a building unaided. This can be used for a number of different people and scenarios, such as staff, students, or those who would normally require assistance in evacuation procedures. 

PEEPs are another security measure which is part of an overall fire risk management plan. 

Person centred risk assessments, also referred to as PCRA,  are there to help businesses implement any necessary arrangements to protect relevant people from the effects of fire. These are also used in addition to overall fire risk management plans. 

We can assist you to carry out person centred risk assessments in order to keep your residents, employees and visitors safe.
