By: Rob Parker Home | Computers-and-Technology

Your shift is just about to end and there is a power outage. Blackout, total darkness sweeps through your work area. Your employees are all chatting and calmly discussing the situation. Someone is saying, Just wait, the lights will return in a minute." One minute, three minutes, ten minutes pass by and nothing happens. A low level of anxiety and panic begins to build. The darkness begins to close in on everyone. The whispers turn to heightened chatter. The room begins to experience a temperature change, people start moving around in the completely black space bumping into things and losing patience. Your employees are looking to you for guidance and support.

You ask yourself, what was that last safety meeting about? Photoluminescent egress pathway markings and custom signage." You visualize the to do list" sitting on your desk with this entry: approval of lighted access signs and pathways to exit doors - urgent. You're a day too late! Don't delay, this scenario could happen to you!
