Fire Evacuation Drills Ireland
RFC organise and supervise fire evacuation drills for commercial premises across Dublin and Leinster. Legally required annually. Written report provided. All sectors covered.
Under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005, all commercial premises in Ireland are legally required to carry out a fire evacuation drill at least once per year. The drill must be documented and a written report retained for inspection. RFC organise, supervise and document fire evacuation drills for commercial premises across Dublin and Leinster.
01
Planning
RFC work with your management team to plan the drill — timing, notification of staff, special requirements for disabled persons.
02
Drill Activation
RFC activate the fire alarm and supervise the evacuation — observing staff response, fire warden performance and evacuation time.
03
Assembly Point Check
RFC supervise the assembly point — confirming all staff are accounted for and assessing the effectiveness of the evacuation procedure.
04
Written Report
A full written drill report is provided — documenting the date, time, evacuation time, staff count and any areas for improvement.
Signed by RFC supervisor — ready for HSA or HIQA inspection
How Often Are Evacuation Drills Required?
Under Irish health and safety legislation, commercial premises must carry out a fire evacuation drill at least once per year. Some sectors require more frequent drills — care homes and healthcare premises regulated by HIQA typically require two drills per year, one of which should be unannounced.
Combining Drills with Fire Safety Training
RFC recommend combining evacuation drills with fire safety training for maximum effectiveness. The training covers what staff should do in the event of a fire — and the drill tests whether that training has been understood and retained. RFC can deliver both on the same day, minimising disruption to your business.
