Building Evacuation

Remember

  1. Walk, don't run, to nearest exit.
  2. Leave the building immediately during an alarm.
  3. Do not investigate the source of a fire or hazardous material emergency.
  4. Use stairs, not elevators.
  5. Assist people with special needs.
  6. Designate a meeting location outside, away from entrances.
  7. Wait for instructions from your supervisor before returning to your building after an evacuation.
  8. Call 911 if you are unable to evacuate.

Each department should have a building evacuation plan that is available at all times. If you do not have such a plan, Safety and Security can help you create one. Call (603) 646-4000.

For more detailed information on building evacuation visit the Environmental Health and Safety website or call Environmental Health and Safety at (603) 646-1762.
