This fire evacuation toolbox talk template from Health & Safety Zone is designed for staff working in gyms, swimming pools and other leisure facilities.
It covers the main fire hazards such as smoke, flames and crowded egress routes, and explains the duties set out by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and the requirements of BS EN 54‑2 fire alarm systems.
Each section includes a purpose, what the evacuation involves, why it matters, 10 do items and 10 don’t items, plus an important summary.
The content is fully editable and shareable, allowing you to customise it to your specific venue.
Regular fire drills should be scheduled at least quarterly, with clear signage indicating escape routes, assembly points and the location of fire‑call points. Staff should receive refresher training on assisting people with reduced mobility and the proper use of evacuation chairs.
All staff must be familiar with the building’s fire‑risk assessment and the emergency contact list, which should be displayed prominently near the main reception.
For detailed guidance on fire risk assessments, emergency planning and legal responsibilities, refer to the official HSE fire safety guidance at HSE Fire Safety. Keeping this toolbox talk up to date helps maintain compliance and protects members and employees.
Compliant with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and BS EN 54‑2 standards.
