This Exit Routes, Emergency Action Plans, and Fire Prevention Plans course gives workers and supervisors a working command of the three OSHA standards that govern building evacuation and fire-safety planning: 29 CFR 1910.36 (design and construction requirements for exit routes), 29 CFR 1910.37 (maintenance, safeguards, and operational features for exit routes), 29 CFR 1910.38 (emergency action plans), and 29 CFR 1910.39 (fire prevention plans). Learners build competency in the physical requirements for exit routes — separation from the workplace, construction of fire-resistive materials, unobstructed width, illumination, signage, and door swing direction — and the operational requirements including the prohibition on locked or blocked exits, the rule that at least two exit routes must be available unless the number of employees, size of the building, and arrangement of the workplace permit safe evacuation from one route, and the rules for temporary outages of exit route lighting. The EAP module walks through each required element of 29 CFR 1910.38(c): procedures for reporting a fire or other emergency, procedures for emergency evacuation including type of evacuation and exit route assignments, procedures for employees who remain to operate critical plant operations before evacuation, procedures to account for all employees after evacuation, procedures for employees performing rescue or medical duties, and the name or title of each employee who may be contacted. The FPP module covers the 29 CFR 1910.39(c) elements including a list of major workplace fire hazards, proper handling and storage procedures, potential ignition sources and their control, the type of fire protection equipment provided, names or job titles of personnel responsible for equipment maintenance, and personnel responsible for fuel-source-hazard control.Related standards covered include 29 CFR 1910.157 portable fire extinguishers, 29 CFR 1910.160 fixed fire suppression systems, 29 CFR 1910.165 employee alarm systems, and 29 CFR 1910.35 compliance with NFPA 101 Life Safety Code as an alternate means of compliance with exit-route design requirements.
