A Personal Emergency Evacuation Plan, commonly referred to as a ‘PEEP’, are plans which aim to evacuate persons from the site who would otherwise be unable to leave the building by their own unaided efforts, due to either temporary or permanent condition, in the event of a fire emergency.

Examples of temporary or permanent conditions:

  • Pregnant
  • Being accompanied by an assistant
  • Have a guide or companion animal
  • Have an ambulatory disability
  • Using a wheel mobility appliance
  • Using crutches
  • Individuals who are easily fatigued
  • Individuals who easily experience acute anxiety in an emergency
  • Individuals who easily experience extreme confusion in an emergency
  • Individuals who may experience seizures in an emergency

PEEP’s are vitally important to ensure that those individuals mentioned above, are vacated from the workplace, in the event of an emergency.

How we conduct the PEEP process

Here at USP, should you require information and documentation on the PEEP process, we will be able to provide you with the following as a package of documentation:

  • Specific PEEP corporate document
  • ‘PEEP process – for managers’ document – this will outline the process of completing a PEEP.
  • Template PEEP documentation (initial assessment form, contractor/visitor form, follow-up interview form)
  • PEEP training package

This package will provide you with everything that you will need to conduct your own Personal Emergency Evacuation Plans at your own convenience.

We recently used Universal Safety Practitioners for a sitewide audit to benchmark our facility to industry standards. Jo was great to work with and provided helpful feedback on our paperwork and facility. The provided report was clear and gave a traffic light system of red, yellow, green for items that may require attention.
