evacuation procedures
Emergency departure plans
Evacuation procedures are the established steps for safely exiting a building or area during an emergency—fire, bomb threat, natural disaster.
Organizations post evacuation routes and conduct drills so occupants know where to go: Please review the evacuation procedures in your employee handbook.
The term appears in safety regulations, emergency planning, and workplace compliance contexts.
