Emergency Shutdown Plans

FireEscapePlans.ie can provide any type of emergency shutdown plan for emergency situations that require the immediate and safe shutdown of utilities, machines, equipment, technology, and processes.

Emergency shutdown plans are a means of illustrating on a simplified site map the location of critical controls that may need be operated as part of a planned emergency response to an incident and of illustrating, through the use of secondary signs, how the controls are to be operated.

Emergencies that require shutdown procedures to be followed could be caused by fire, chemical spill, gas leak, machinery malfunction, injury of operatives, etc. Plans and safety signs that show what needs to be made safe, where the relevant controls are located, and how to operate them are an ideal way of achieving this.

Emergency Equipment Location Maps

FireEscapePlans.ie can design safety equipment plans to display the location and type of equipment that is provided within a workplace for use during an emergency, e.g. fire-fighting equipment, first aid, evacuation chairs, etc.

Every organisation should display up-to-date plans that clearly show its designated first responders where the essential emergency response equipment is located. Location maps will also be of assistance to the organisation's employees or service providers who are engaged in carrying out routine inventory checks or scheduled inspection and maintenance of the safety equipment. Additional maps may be provided to show the location and type of special fire risks or hazards such as stores of flammable liquids and gases, pressurised cylinders, fuel pipelines, and tanks, etc.

The following categories can be shown on the emergency equipment location plan:
