When the alarm sounds, everyone has one place to be.
The assembly point is the safe outdoor spot where your team gathers after evacuating — so wardens can count heads and no one is left inside. Here is exactly how to use it.
Stay calm — walk, don't run
Stop what you're doing the moment the alarm sounds. Move steadily; panic and running cause the injuries, not the emergency.
Follow the green exit signs
Take the nearest marked escape route. Green signs always lead to safety — never use the lifts.
Go straight to the assembly point
Head directly to your designated point and stand with your team so wardens can find and count everyone quickly.
Wait for the all-clear signal
Stay at the point until a warden or fire officer confirms it's safe. Report anyone missing to them immediately.
Never re-enter the building
Do not go back for belongings or colleagues. Only re-enter once officials declare the building safe.
Green means gather here.
Emergency assembly signs are always green with white symbols — two figures and four arrows pointing inward to your meeting place. The number tells you which assembly point it is. Learn where yours is before an emergency, not during one.
