Fires can happen anywhere, at any time and have a devastating impact on the university community and physical resources. All alarms must be treated as real and building occupants must evacuate when the alarm sounds.

You can prepare for a fire emergency by knowing the location of primary and alternative exit routes, fire alarm pull-stations and fire extinguishers.

1. Pull the fire alarm.
2. Call 911 and campus security at 780-497-5555.
3. Evacuate the building via the nearest floor exit, closing doors as you leave.
4. Do not use elevator.
5. Help people with disabilities. If you are unable to assist, report their location to campus security.
6. Proceed to the nearest muster point. City Centre Campus
7. Do not re-enter the building until you hear the all clear announcement.

If the fire is small, use a fire extinguisher to put out the fire. Only use a fire extinguisher if you know how. Never put yourself or others at risk.

If you need help getting out

1. Go to the nearest stairwell exit.
2. Call 911 and/or campus security at 780-497-5555 and provide your location.
