Background Guidance Safe use of work equipment Page 12 of 87 Health and Safety Executive PUWE Reg. 11 (d) so far as is reasonably practicable as regards any place of work under the employer’s control, the maintenance of it in a condition that is safe and without risks to health and the provision and maintenance of means of access and egress from it that are safe and without risks; Workplace HSW ACoP 97 Floors and traffic routes should be kept free of obstructions which may present a hazard or impede access. HSWA Sec2 2 d) so far as is reasonably practicable as regards any place of work under the employer’s control, the maintenance of it in a condition that is safe and without risks to health and the provision and maintenance of means of access to and egress from it that are safe and without such risks; RR Fire Safety Order 2005 The following guide can be used to determine the general capacities of escape routes: A width of at least 750mm can accommodate up to: • 80 people in higher risk premises; • 100 people in normal risk premises; or • 120 people in lower risk premises. A width of at least 1,050mm can accommodate up to: • 160 people in higher risk premises; • 200 people in normal risk premises; or • 240 people in lower risk premises. An additional 75mm should be allowed for each additional 15 persons (or part of 15). The minimum width of an escape route should not be less than 750mm (unless it is for use by less than five people in part of your premises) and, where wheelchair users are likely to use it, 900mm. The aggregate width of all the escape routes should be not less than that required to accommodate the maximum number of people likely to use them. May help in setting out your arguments Regards Vor
