Fire Assembly Signs Guide
Fire Assembly Signs identify the designated location where employees, visitors and contractors should gather following an evacuation. These signs play an important role in emergency planning by helping fire wardens and responsible persons account for building occupants after a fire alarm activation.
Using the recognised green safe condition sign format, assembly point signs provide clear guidance and help reduce confusion during emergency evacuations.
