This weekly inspection template helps hospitality teams verify evacuation and refuge areas are ready for emergencies. Tasks include checking refuge alarm panel status and weekly test activation, confirming doors close fully, ensuring routes and stairways are clear of obstacles, and verifying evacuation chairs are present and fit for use. Inspect assembly points for clear signage, lighting, and absence of slip or trip hazards. Use this checklist to document findings, address faults promptly, and maintain guest and staff safety compliance in hotel environments.
