Nobody is exempt from completing annual fire drills. As all employers are responsible under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 for conducting fire risk assessments and that they should be recorded. Following the assessment one of the management responsibilities would be to ensutre that all staff are trained in fire precautions and how to escape to a place of safety. This can't be done without practice drills at least once a year, better still twice. The landlord or person in control of the premises is responsible for ensuring that all tenants in the building are familiar with the evacuation procedures. How do they know that everybody can hear the alarm, are tennats aware of the alarm sound and how do they know where their alternative escape route is if they never practice it?
Hope this is useful.
