Fire
Fire alarms (signal sounds) are installed throughout the building. In the event of an alarm, this is connected directly to the emergency services.
If the fire alarm goes off, evacuate the house according to posted signs and evacuation plans. Fire doors set up with magnets close automatically to prevent the spread of fire and smoke.
SCARED - WARN - ALARM - EXTINGUISH
• save yourself and others around you, but don't take too many risks yourself
• warn others who may be in danger
• alert the Emergency Services by calling 112
• put out the fire if possible
Fire-sectioned doors in corridors and towards escape routes that are not set up with magnets connected to the fire alarm must always be kept closed to prevent the possible spread of fire and smoke.
Escape routes / Assembly point
See evacuation plans in corridors.
The stairwells form independent escape routes. Two stairwells can be reached from each workplace. The escape routes, which are marked with green luminous escape signs, must never be blocked. The green signs are always lit and have a battery backup to illuminate even in the event of a power cut.
If the fire alarm is triggered, all personnel must leave the building, close all doors behind them and gather at the assembly point (See the respective evacuation plan). The staff reports there to the evacuation recipient and leaves their name and group affiliation or equivalent. No one may depart from the assembly point until this is done.
Person and elevator alarms
Possibility to send an emergency signal from elevators. When the push button is held down for more than 15 seconds, a signal sounds outside the door and the alarm goes to Akademiska Hus. After regular working hours, alarms are sent to on-call staff or security guards.
Alarms from elevators are reset by operating personnel.
Coverage
Remember to always, if possible, lock your room when it is empty. Also, do not keep things prone to theft loose at the front of the room.
Consider the risk of theft!
If you see someone on the premises that you do not recognize or are otherwise unsure of, ask who they are and what they are doing on the premises.
