You are notified that a tornado is heading toward your location, the fire alarm system in the building is activated, or there is a notification to evacuate the building you are in. These are just a few example situations where you should either evacuate a building or take shelter in a building. If you are not very familiar with the facility and their procedures where you are located then you may not know what to do in one of these incidents.

Many building owners will display emergency procedure maps in their facilities to assist occupants when these situations arise. Talk to Your Manager or Building Supervisor if your company does not have a plan posted.

Know Your Evacuation Plan.
