Please observe the following General Fire Safety advice during the periods of the strike action:

  1. Keep escape routes free from obstacles and check signage and emergency lighting is working and in place.
  2. Keep fire doors shut (they should always be shut anyway, unless designed to do otherwise) and keep them clear of any obstacles.
  3. Switch off any electrical equipment when not in use.
  4. Always make yourself an escape plan.
  5. If you have a fire, get out and stay out, and call University Security on 69966.
