Overview
Emergency evacuations can be chaotic. Evacuation procedures can be forgotten and workplace layout is constantly changing. Therefore it is imperative that evacuation procedures are refreshed on a regular basis. If an evacuation is not conducted smoothly and expediently it can result in delay, entrapment and danger to life and property. At ALCAN we help businesses by conducting evacuation drills on a six monthly or annual basis depending on your business requirements.
