Entrances, Exits, and Exit Access Routes

All designated emergency exits can be opened immediately from the inside and are free of boxes, carts, pallets, displays, or other obstructions.
Paths leading to exits are continuous and unobstructed from the sales floor and back-of-house areas to the exit discharge.
Exit signage is visible from the normal approach direction and not blocked by merchandise, banners, or temporary displays.

Sales Floor Aisle Clearance

Main customer aisles are free of obstructions that reduce usable width or create a blockage during evacuation.
Cross-aisles and endcap displays do not create pinch points or reduce the clear path needed for safe movement.
Spills, loose debris, shrink wrap, broken packaging, and other slip or trip hazards are removed from aisle travel paths.

Department-Specific Egress Clearance

Department aisles and work paths are not blocked by rolling racks, ingredient bins, carts, or staged product.
Access around refrigerated cases, freezer doors, and service aisles remains clear for employee and customer movement.
Customer queues, impulse displays, and lane fixtures do not obstruct egress toward exits or emergency pathways.

Back-of-House, Stockroom, and Receiving Areas

Stored product, pallets, and equipment do not reduce stockroom aisles below usable travel width or create dead-end congestion.
Pallet staging, rolltainers, carts, and trash containers are positioned so they do not block doors, corridors, or exit access routes.
Access to utility rooms, electrical panels, and fire protection equipment is not obstructed by stored materials or temporary items.

Corrective Actions and Inspector Notes

Record each non-conformance with a specific location, department, and description of the obstruction or hazard.
Identify the immediate action taken or assigned owner, including removal of obstruction, relocation of stock, or escalation to management.
Add any additional observations relevant to fire egress, aisle clearance, or recurring congestion patterns.
