1 EXIT ROUTES, EMERGENCY ACTION PLANS, AND FIRE PREVENTION PLANS PART 1: INTRODUCTION Applicability of This Module Use the following General Applicability Checklist to determine whether a rulebook and its sections apply to your operation If you answer YES to the rulebook question, the rulebook applies to you unless you answer YES for a rulebook exemption Once you determine that the rulebook does apply to your operation, you must answer the section questions If a section question does not exist, then that section applies if the rulebook applies If you answer YES to a section question, that section applies to you unless you answer YES for an exemption from that section If you answer YES to a rulebook or section exemption, then the rulebook or section does not apply Regulatory Summary GENERAL APPLICABILITY CHECKLIST Rulebook E: Exit Routes, Emergency Action Plans, and Fire Prevention Plans RULEBOOK: Are you an employer in general industry? RULEBOOK Exemption: Do you have only mobile workplaces, such as vehicles or vessels? Applies Y q N q Exempt Y q N q OSHA has established regulations to ensure safe exit routes for occupants of all buildings and structures in the event of a fire or other emergency These regulations also include requirements related to the development of EAPs and FPPs The specific regulations covered in this module are part of 29 CFR 1910 Subpart E (Exit Routes, Emergency Action Plans, and Fire Prevention Plans) The OSHA standards found at 29 CFR and establish the requirements for providing safe exit routes from buildings and structures The standards require that all buildings and structures have emergency exits of sufficient number, kind, location, and capacity appropriate to the type of building and the occupancy to allow prompt escape in an emergency Emergency exits and exit routes must also meet specific standards for construction, design, arrangement, maintenance, marking, and accessibility Certain OSHA standards require the development and implementation of EAPs and FPPs The regulations found at 29 CFR detail the elements that must be included in such plans and also contain requirements for employee training EAPs must cover the actions to be taken in a fire or other emergency to ensure employee safety They must include emergency reporting guidelines, emergency escape procedures, rescue and medical duties, and evacuation procedures The plan must be reviewed with all employees and a sufficient number of people must be trained to assist in evacuation FPPs must identify workplace fire hazards and detail methods for controlling and preventing fires Employee training in fire hazards is also required ES/Part 1-1
2 Exit Routes, Emergency Action Plans, and Fire Prevention Plans Introduction OSHA has incorporated a national consensus standard, NFPA (Life Safety Code) into their regulations at 29 CFR Any employer that demonstrates compliance with the exit route provisions of the Life Safety Code will be deemed to be in compliance with the OSHA Exit Route standards at 29 CFR , , and OSHA has an ongoing policy of recommending that employers comply with the current revision of a national consensus standard relative to a previous revision which was incorporated, usually with changes, into OSHA regulations This recommendation is predicated on compliance with a current national consensus standard which provides at least the same level of safety and health as would otherwise be provided by complying with the previous national consensus standard adopted into OSHA regulations State or local governments enforce their building codes independently of the occupational safety and health standards All workplaces must comply with OSHA s minimum exit route standards; however, state or local government model building codes may enforce more stringent exit route requirements within their jurisdiction States with OSHA-approved state plans have the authority to implement exit route programs Since state plans may include requirements more stringent than the federal program summarized here, it is important to review health and safety and building code regulations at the state and local level OSHA maintains numerous Directives on the of topic exit routes, EAPs, and FPPs All Directives may be viewed on the OSHA website ( wwwoshagov), by clicking on the letter D (for Directives) in the Site Index In the Directives page, search for Exit Routes The most relevant and current Directive that may be useful in specific compliance issues is Compliance Policy for Emergency Action Plans and Fire Prevention Plans (CPL , 07/09/2002) Key Compliance Definitions These definitions were obtained from 29 CFR 1910 Subpart E (Exit Routes) Electroluminescent A light-emitting capacitor Alternating current excites phosphor atoms when placed between the electrically conductive surfaces to produce light This light source is typically contained inside the device Exit That portion of an exit route that is generally separated from other areas to provide a protected way of travel to the exit discharge An example of an exit is a two-hour fire resistance-rated enclosed stairway that leads from the fifth floor of an office building to the outside of the building Exit Access That portion of an exit route that leads to an exit An example of an exit access is a corridor on the fifth floor of an office building that leads to a two-hour fire resistance-rated enclosed stairway (the Exit) Exit Discharge The part of the exit route that leads directly outside or to a street, walkway, refuge area, public way, or open space with access to the outside An example of an exit discharge is a door at the bottom of a two-hour fire resistance-rated enclosed stairway that discharges to a place of safety outside the building Exit Route A continuous and unobstructed way of exit travel from any point in a building or structure to a public way consisting of three separate and distinct parts: the way of exit access, the exit, and the way of exit discharge An exit route comprises the vertical and horizontal ways of travel and includes intervening room spaces, signs, doorways, hallways, corridors, passageways, balconies, ramps, stairs, enclosures, lobbies, escalators, horizontal exits, courts, and yards ES/Part 1-2
3 Exit Routes, Emergency Action Plans, and Fire Prevention Plans Introduction High Hazard Area An area inside a workplace in which operations include high hazard materials, processes, or contents Occupant Load The total number of persons that may occupy a workplace or portion of a workplace at any one time The occupant load of a workplace is calculated by dividing the gross floor area of the workplace or portion of a workplace by the occupant load factor for that particular type of workplace occupancy Information regarding Occupant Load is located in NFPA (Life Safety Code), and in IFC-2009 (International Fire Code) Refuge Area Either: a space along an exit route that is protected from the effects of fire by separation from other spaces within the building by a barrier with at least a one-hour fire resistance-rating; or a floor with at least two spaces, separated from each other by smoke-resistant partitions, in a building protected throughout by an automatic sprinkler system that complies with Section of this part Self-Luminous A light source that is illuminated by a self-contained power source (eg, tritium) and that operates independently from external power sources Batteries are not acceptable self-contained power sources The light source is typically contained inside the device ES/Part 1-3
