Public Safety Tips

If you discover a fire or detect smoke:

Leave the immediate area of the fire.

• Warn people in the area to evacuate.

• If the fire alarm is not sounding, activate the fire alarm by using

the nearest pull station.

• From a safe location, call 922, or direct someone else to call 922 from a safe location.

HOT TIP: If you have received fire extinguisher training or have used a fire extinguisher in the past, and can safely do so, extinguish the fire. Leave the area if you cannot control the fire.

On notification of a fire emergency:

Calmly proceed to the nearest exit.

• Close, but do not lock doors.

• Use the stairs: do not use the elevator.

• Follow the instructions of Fire Wardens, emergency services, Security or College

Personnel.

• Quickly move away from the building, but do not run or crowd.

• Move to your department emergency meeting location and/or a muster point away from the building in a safe area away from traffic.

• If weather is inclement, move to the nearest safe building.

• Re-enter the building when notified by emergency services and/or College

Personnel/Security that it is safe to do so.
