"As buildings get taller and become more accessible to persons with restricted mobility, it is critically important that our health and safety policies and procedures also keep pace," says Colin Moore, UK Sales Manager, Evac+Chair.
"At Health & Safety North, we'll be sharing best practice evacuation advice and explaining the importance of training and practising procedures to ensure they are effective and fit for purpose."
Throughout the event, the Evac+Chair team will be performing on stand demonstrations of its world-leading evacuation chairs to showcase just how easy they are to use. The Evac+Chair enables an efficient and simple stairway descent for those with disabilities or mobility impairments in an emergency situation.
Safe evacuation procedures which prioritise the wellbeing of every occupant are best achieved when we move beyond the 'tick box' response to risk. Effective evacuation is about truly embedding your emergency procedures within your building or organisation's culture, communicating them clearly and practising them frequently.
