Choosing where the assembly point sign goes

The sign is easy; the location is the decision. A muster area needs to be far enough from the building to be clear of collapse, smoke and falling glass, off the routes the fire service will use so you are not standing in their way, and reachable without crossing a live roadway - the last one catches people out constantly, because the natural gathering spot is often across the car park entrance. It should be big enough for everyone at peak occupancy, usable at night and in bad weather, and named the same way in your emergency plan, your induction and on the sign itself. Mount the sign high enough to be found in a crowd, and consider a second one visible from the building so people can see where they are heading as they come out. Then check it against your plan annually, because car parks get re-line-marked and buildings get extended.
