give me a sample Firestopping plan

While the provided documents don't offer a complete sample firestopping plan, they do outline essential elements that should be included in such a plan. Here's a consolidated view to guide you in creating one:

1. Hazard Identification and Control: Identify major fire hazards, including improper handling and storage of hazardous materials, potential ignition sources, and the fire protection equipment needed to control each hazard [1]. The plan should detail proper handling and storage procedures for flammable substances present at the workplace [2].

2. Housekeeping Procedures: Implement procedures to control accumulations of flammable and combustible waste materials 4, 9. Maintain driveways free of rubbish and unnecessary combustible materials [3].

3. Equipment Maintenance: Include procedures for regular maintenance of safeguards on heat-producing equipment to prevent accidental ignition of combustible materials 4, 8, 9.

4. Emergency Procedures: The plan must include emergency procedures in case of a fire, including sounding the fire alarm, notifying the fire department, and evacuating endangered workers, with special provisions for workers with disabilities [2].

5. Evacuation Plan: Detail emergency escape procedures and route assignments 3, 17. The plan should establish the types of evacuation to be used in emergency circumstances 3, 17.

6. Employee Training and Information: Inform employees of fire hazards in their work area and review the parts of the fire prevention plan necessary for self-protection when they are first assigned to the job [1]. Review the plan with each employee initially, when responsibilities change, and whenever the plan is changed 3, 17.

7. Alarm Systems: Establish an employee alarm system that complies with relevant standards, providing warning for necessary emergency action 3, 17.

8. Designated Personnel: The fire safety plan should designate persons to carry out the fire safety plan and their duties. It should also include the names or job titles of employees responsible for maintaining equipment and controlling ignition sources and fuel source hazards 4, 9, 11.

9. Fire Drills: The plan should include holding fire drills [2].

10. Fire Extinguishers: Ensure that portable fire extinguishers are selected, located, inspected, maintained, and tested to protect workers' health and safety [2].

Remember to keep the written plan at the workplace and make it available for employee review 3, 17. For workplaces with 10 or fewer employees, a verbal plan may be sufficient 4, 15.
