Maintain exit routes during construction and repair.

  You must:

     • Have enough exit routes that comply with these rules before letting your employees occupy a workplace under new construction.

     • Make sure that employees do not occupy an existing workplace unless:

     – All exits and existing fire protection are maintained; or

     – Alternate fire protection is provided that ensures an equivalent level of safety.

     • Make sure that flammable or explosive materials used during construction or repair do not expose employees to additional hazards or prevent emergency escape.
