NFPA 2800 PDF

Identify potential dangers and help keep your facility safer with the new standard for developing emergency action plans for all-hazard emergencies.

NFPA 2800, Standard on Facility Emergency Action Plans, guides the creation of emergency action plans (EAPs) to help keep people safe during emergencies in non-industrial facilities with more than 500 persons, such as high-rise buildings, large offices, entertainment venues, and others. The standard addresses duties, requirements, competencies, and qualifications of relevant facility personnel and establishes minimum criteria for EAPs relating to all-hazard emergencies.

Intended as a companion document to NFPA 1082, Standard for Facilities Fire and Life Safety Director Professional Qualifications, NFPA 2800 outlines strategies based on the “TRIP” concept: total evacuation, remain-in-place, in-facility relocation, and partial evacuation.
