According to Means of Escape, during evacuations the presence of fire marshals is imperative to maintain order and carry out the procedure in as short time as possible. Research has shown that occupants react quicker when the evacuation is supported by authority figures who give good verbal instructions.

To enhance the effectiveness of the evacuation procedure, fire marshals need to be clearly visible and easily identifiable. In the case of a potentially lifethreatening situation, occupants need to know who to look for to lead them out of the building safely.

A fire marshal needs to be easily identifiable in an emergency, as they are responsible for ensuring a quick and efficient evacuation.

Wearing a high visibility jerkin will ensure the responsible person is easily seen.
