Emergency Evacuation & Fire Drill Training

 National & Manitoba Fire Codes Requires:

• Fire drills must be held at intervals no greater than 12 months & should be documented
• Schools, residential care facilities & high-rise buildings must have greater fire drill frequencies as per the fire code
• All supervisory personnel or designated  fire wardens must be trained on fire drill procedures

We recommend additional procedures:

• All occupants should be aware of all evacuation exits & fire notification devices
• Alert 911 of a fire emergency 
• Drills should be performed during regular business hours as well as after hours for 24 hour facilities
• Ensure thiere are a sufficiant number of muster points for exit out of the building
• Make sure that occupants are clear of all fire lanes & fire department access
• Designated personnel to perform proper shut-down of buidling systems if safe to do so
