Fire and Building Safety in Workplace: Legal Remedy and Protection in the Context of Labour Act 2006

Abstract

This study's objective was to investigate the effectiveness of fire safety measures in relation to structures. In the event of a fire, buildings residents should be able to evacuate on their own. Case studies reveal that residents frequently fail to take the necessary precautions to avoid or escape fires and are frequently found unable to do so. The study's approach was based on analyses of actual incidents and field tests, like surprise evacuation exercises. Researchers have so far hardly ever used virtual reality to explore how people behave in flames. The use of a behavioral assessment and research tool in virtual reality is anticipated to be a useful addition to the current research methods, though, as test subjects can experience the phenomenon of fire in virtual environments in a safe manner. Data was also collected from books, magazines, journals, and related articles. In general, nothing is known about the conduct of real people when a fire breaks out. As a result, it is preferable to base building fire safety on actual human behavior in a fire. It is crucial to educate building inhabitants on safety precautions to take during and after fire breakouts, as well as other fire prevention strategies to follow for their protection. After a thorough review of the existing fire safety measures, as they apply to users and the effectiveness of these measures, the study recommended appropriate fire safety measures in accordance with best practices
