What Is a Fire Evacuation Plan?

A fire emergency evacuation plan (FEEP) is a documented set of emergency procedures designed to ensure occupants can safely and efficiently evacuate a building in the event of a fire or emergency situation.

An effective evacuation plan should clearly identify:

    • Escape routes
    • Emergency exits
    • Assembly points
    • Fire alarm procedures
    • Staff responsibilities
    • Emergency contact arrangements
    • Procedures for vulnerable occupants
    • Evacuation management strategies

Having a suitable evacuation plan in place is a key part of effective fire safety management and helps demonstrate compliance with UK fire safety legislation.

A Fire Emergency Evacuation Plan (FEEP) covers the overall evacuation strategy for a building, while a Personal Emergency Evacuation Plan (PEEP) is designed for individuals who may require assistance during evacuation.
