Evacuation procedures – EMERGENCY CONTROL ORGANISATION (ECO)
Chief Warden Evacuation Procedure
1) BEEP….BEEP…. stay calm, collect personal belongings.
2) Retrieve the white hat and key for the fire indicator and EWIS panels. The Key is located in
reception next to the master keys.
3) Proceed to the fire indicator and EWIS panels, these are located next to the main foyer on
level 2.
4) Using the two fire indicator panels (FIPs), locate the region that triggered the alarm.
5) Using the PA and/or red phone, attempt to communicate with the floor wardens in the
affected region.
6) Using information from floor wardens, try to establish the cause and seriousness of the
alarm. In an emergency ask the deputy to dial 000 and press the red break glass to ensure
the fire brigade are called.
7) Ask the deputy warden to write down the type and location of the emergency on the
evacuation checklist on the wall and call security – 93513333
8) Consider the safest way to exit the building for occupants in and around the affected area.
Inform relevant wardens of the proposed exit path using the PA or itercom.
9) Use the PA to communicate with the occupants of levels 5 and 6. “Attention all personnel
on levels 5 & 6. Please leave the area you are in immediately. Make your way to level 4 and
follow instructions from the floor wardens.”
10) Use the PA to communicate to all levels. “Attention all personnel, please prepare to
evacuate. Please stay calm”
11) WOOP….WOOP… evacuate the building
12) Communicate with all personnel via the PA. “Attention all personnel, the emergency system
has been activated, please make your way to the nearest exit. Please follow instructions
from the floor wardens”.
13) Wait for floor wardens to arrive at the FIP. When a floor warden confirms a region is clear,
record the location on the evacuation checklist then direct wardens to guard building entry
points. Tick these off on the evacuation checklist.
14) When all entries are guarded, ask remaining wardens to assist security patrol staff in crowd
control. Wardens to direct personnel onto the oval, not next to Physics road.
15) When emergency services arrive, communicate the type and location of the emergency,
which areas have not been confirmed clear and any other details.
16) After emergency services have confirmed the building is safe, announce this using a
megaphone and permit personnel back into building. Meet with the floor wardens for
debriefing.

Bomb threat
Bomb threats are usually received via a telephone call, but occasionally as a written threat. The response
to a bomb threat is often different to other emergencies. The University Security Service will work with
the NSW Police to decide the best course of action. If a search or evacuation is deemed necessary, the
ECO may be asked to assist the process.
PERSON WHO RECEIVES THE THREAT
1. Do not hang up the phone – leave the line open
2. Use the phone threat checklist (APPENDIX B) to record as much information as possible
3. Notify Security (1-3333) and local management.
SECURITY
1. Notify the NSW Police
2. Work with the NSW Police and local management to assess the threat
3. Decide the best course of action
4. If an evacuation is required, ensure that the assembly area and exit paths are free of suspicious
items.
EMERGENCY CONTROL ORGANISATION (ECO)
Work with Security and the NSW Police as instructed
BUILDING OCCUPANTS
1. Follow instructions from Security, NSW Police or the ECO
2. On request, check the immediate work area for anything suspicious
3. If requested, collect your personal belongings and evacuate as directed

Gas leak
Many of the University’s buildings are serviced by natural gas. A significant gas leak, associated with
equipment failure or damage to a high pressure gas line, may have an impact on the safety of the
building occupants.
In the event that gas can be smelt inside a building.
BUILDING WARDENS AND/OR LOCAL SUPERVISORS
1. Eliminate ignition sources
2. Evacuate all staff, students and visitors to a well ventilated area
3. Notify Security 1-3333 and the Chief Warden
CHIEF WARDEN
1. Check if other areas of the building are affected
2. Liaise with Security and Campus Infrastructure Services (CIS) 1-7838
If necessary…
3. Manually activate evacuation procedures3
4. Ensure that the Emergency Services have been notified.
3 Gas leak - it is important to check that the normal assembly area is safe, i.e. not impacted by the gas leak.
- 11 -
Hazardous material (HAZMAT) incident
Chemicals, compressed gases, biological agents and radiation are all used at the University. These
substances are generally stored and used in laboratories, workshops and dangerous goods depots.
The individual departments and workgroups that store or use these substances are required to
implement appropriate local emergency procedures to manage incidents involving those hazardous
substances. Although hazardous substances are usually stored and used in small quantities, an accidental
spill or release may have an impact on the safety of the building occupants.
STAFF/STUDENTS INVOLVED IN THE INCIDENT
1. Evacuate the affected area
2. Arrange first aid assistance, if required
3. Establish answers to the following questions:
What substance is involved?
How much has been released?
Where is it located?
Is an evacuation required?
Is assistance from the NSW Fire Brigade (HAZMAT UNIT) required?
If assistance from the NSW Fire Brigade is required…
4. Secure the affected area
5. Report the emergency 0-000 & 1-3333
6. Notify the Chief Warden.
CHIEF WARDEN
1. Do not enter the affected area
2. Ascertain the nature and location of the problem, from a safe distance
3. Maintain contact with the staff/students involved in the incident
4. Coordinate further evacuations, if required
5. Liaise with the Wardens, First Aid Officers, Security and Emergency Services personnel
6. Announce when the emergency is over.

Emergency lockdown
Building emergency procedures are traditionally focused on the safe evacuation of staff, students and
visitors. This is an appropriate response to most emergency situations (eg. fire, gas leak, internal release
of hazardous materials), but in some situations it may actually be safer to stay inside the building.
An emergency lockdown will be implemented when necessary to ensure that the occupants of University
Buildings are protected from an external threat, including but not limited to, violent incidents, civil
disturbance or severe storms. An emergency lockdown may also be implemented in situations where
additional pedestrian traffic on campus may hinder the work of the attending emergency services.
You will be notified of an emergency lockdown by the attending Emergency Services personnel, Security
Patrol or your Chief Warden. This message will be communicated via the building’s emergency warning
PA system or another mechanism.
CHIEF WARDEN
1. Follow the instructions of the Emergency Services and Security
2. Facilitate the use of the Emergency Warning System (or other communication equipment)
3. Maintain contact with Wardens via Warden Intercom Phones (WIP)
4. Act as directed by Security and the Emergency Services.
WARDENS
1. Encourage staff to remain calm
2. Stay close to the WIP, if safe to do so
3. Act as directed by Chief Warden.
BUILDING OCCUPANTS
1. Remain calm
2. Follow instructions from the Emergency Services, Security and Wardens
3. Stay away from exposed windows
4. If possible, maintain phone and email access
5. If possible, maintain contact with colleagues and/or fellow students.

People with disabilities
People with physical disabilities may have difficulty moving quickly or using stairs. People who are deaf
or who have a partial hearing impairment may have difficulty in hearing emergency alarm signals and
announcements. People who are blind or who have a visual impairment may have difficulty in finding
and negotiating the emergency exit routes. Nevertheless some people who do have a disability may not
require assistance.
Staff and students who may expect to have difficulties during an emergency or evacuation should make
themselves and their usual location known to the Chief Warden of the building. The Chief Warden should
then privately discuss with them the emergency procedures for the building and modify these (if
necessary) to accommodate their disability.
Visual signals may be used to alert those people with impaired hearing, or an escort may be assigned to
communicate emergency messages to them. Emergency exit routes must be kept clear for those with
visual impairment. In the majority of cases an escort should be allocated to provide assistance and wait
with the person until such time as they can be safely evacuated.
In the event of an emergency that leads to a building evacuation, people with disabilities who require
assistance to evacuate should be assembled at a pre-arranged “safe place” and attended to by their
escorts or at least one building warden.
Immediately following the evacuation of “able-bodied” building occupants, those with disabilities who
are capable of using the stairs should be assisted from the building by an escort or warden. Another
warden or escort should remain with those in the “safe place” awaiting evacuation. People who are
incapable of using the stairs should be evacuated under the control of the attending Emergency Services.
