Most complex buildings require emergency response and evacuation plans to be developed. This document must include procedures for reporting emergencies, evacuation procedures, requirements for fire drills etc.

At Vortex Fire, we can assist in developing project-specific emergency response and evacuation plans to ensure the building occupants are better prepared for emergencies.
In Canada, fire safety regulations mandate that certain building types such as high-rise residential towers, commercial facilities, healthcare buildings and public venues — must have a documented Emergency Evacuation Plan Canada tailored to the layout, occupancy type and associated risks. These plans are critical for protecting lives and minimizing chaos during an emergency event.

A well-structured Building emergency evacuation plan includes:

  • Clear identification of evacuation routes and assembly points
  • Designated roles and responsibilities for staff and emergency coordinators
  • Communication protocols for alerting building occupants
  • Procedures for assisting people with disabilities or mobility issues
  • Scheduled fire drills to verify readiness and response time

The purpose of the Emergency evacuation plan goes beyond regulatory compliance—it ensures that every occupant knows what to do in the event of a fire, gas leak, natural disaster, or other threat. Having a clear and tested response strategy in place can drastically reduce injuries and save lives.
