Fire Safety Checklist and Evacuation Drill Record

A working kit for the person who looks after fire safety in a workplace — an office, a warehouse, a workshop, a shop or a small factory. The checklist takes you round the building in the order a fire develops: what could start one, what would feed it, how people would find out, how they would get out, and what would be used to fight it. The forms give you the records that show the arrangements are tested and kept up.

What is inside

Workplace Fire Safety Inspection Checklist — 96 checks in ten sections, from housekeeping and ignition sources to the emergency plan, each written as a statement you can find evidence for, with Yes / No / N/A boxes and space for notes.

Fire Risk Assessment and Drill Record Forms — a fire risk assessment form in two parts, an evacuation drill record, a fire extinguisher inspection log and a fire warden register, with worked example rows.

Both documents as a designed, print-ready PDF and as an editable Word file.

Who it is for

HSE officers, facility and office managers, fire wardens, building supervisors and small business owners who need a structured way to inspect their premises and keep fire safety records in one place.

How to use it

Walk the building with the checklist rather than completing it at a desk. Open the fire doors, look behind the stock, read the service labels and ask people where their assembly point is. Record what you saw in the notes column. For every No, agree an action, an owner and a date, and feed anything significant into the fire risk assessment form. Run a drill, time it, and write down what went wrong — that is the most useful part of the record.

Fire safety law, inspection intervals and equipment requirements differ between countries, emirates, free zones and building types. This kit does not quote legal minimums. Check the requirements of your local fire authority and your own fire risk assessment, and use competent, approved contractors for the servicing of fire systems.
