You must ensure that your facility has at least two emergency exits in the event that one of the exits is obstructed / unavailable during an emergency. Windows can be used as emergency exits, but should not be counted towards the minimum number required. One emergency exit is acceptable ONLY in facilities when BOTH of the following parameters exist:
•Floor area: <70 square meters (750 square feet);
•Occupant count: <10 persons. Additional emergency exits are required for following occupant counts, regardless of occupancy type:
•10-499 persons: 2 or more emergency exits;
•500-1000 persons: 3 or more emergency exits;
•>1000 persons: 4 or more emergency exits. If local legal requirements are more stringent than above, then you must comply with local law. Keep an accurate account of the number of occupants in your facility. Prepare a facility / dormitory / canteen plot plan that includes the floor area or dimensions..
