So, I know that there are anti-discrimination laws that require workplaces to have disability access requirements like ramps alongside stairs to entrances, and elevators to allow individuals who are in wheelchairs to access higher floors.

However, there are also workplace safety regulations that require evacuation paths for emergencies such as fires, which usually involve using the stairs to evacuate higher floors, while the use of elevators for this purpose is usually forbidden.

So, how do people with disabilities evacuate during an emergency where the use of elevators is forbidden? They couldn’t take their wheelchair down the stairs, right?
