As H&S lead for a multi-site organisation employing over 300 staff, I was looking for comprehensive guidance on making our fire safety truly inclusive. This resource has been outstanding. It goes far beyond basic compliance and really helped us understand how to design evacuation procedures that work for everyone, including our employees with hidden disabilities. The practical examples and case studies were particularly useful – we’ve now implemented visual alarms, improved our refuge areas, and completely overhauled our PEEP process. Our disabled staff have given excellent feedback about feeling safer and more valued. This should be essential reading for every H&S professional.
