Mining Industry embraces visitor contractor system

In the event of an emergency, proper evacuation management is critical to ensuring the safety of building occupants, including visitors. This is where visitor management software can come in handy.

Visitor management software can be used to track the whereabouts of visitors in the building and ensure that they are safely evacuated in the event of an emergency. The software can also be used to communicate important safety information and evacuation instructions to visitors, including directions to the nearest exit and assembly point.

Here are some tips for using visitor management software for evacuation management in buildings:

Set up the software properly: Make sure that the software is set up correctly and that all visitors are registered upon entry. This will ensure that you have an accurate record of all visitors in the building in the event of an emergency.

Use the software to communicate: Utilize the software to communicate important safety information and evacuation instructions to visitors. This can be done through automated messages, emails, or text messages.

Identify assembly points: Use the software to identify assembly points for visitors in the event of an emergency. This will help to ensure that all visitors are accounted for and can be safely evacuated.

Train staff on evacuation procedures: Make sure that all staff members are trained on evacuation procedures and know how to use the visitor management software. This will ensure that everyone is prepared in the event of an emergency.

Test the system regularly: Regularly test the visitor management software to ensure that it is working properly and that everyone knows how to use it. This will help to ensure that everyone is prepared in the event of an emergency.

Overall, using visitor management software for evacuation management in buildings can be a valuable tool for ensuring the safety of all occupants, including visitors. By properly utilizing the software and following these tips, building managers can be well-prepared in the event of an emergency.

I am amazed every week as I find more companies still managing inductions on paper consuming hours of wasted time collating all the information followed by updating manual systems with the results only to discover the renewal of the induction is rarely managed inline with the expiration of the actual initial induction date.
