Building Emergency Plan

Effective March 2010.
Revised March 2012

Building evacuation is mandatory whenever a fire alarm sounds.

Every supervisor is responsible for having staff familiarize themselves with these procedures. Students should be informed of the web location for these procedures and should familiarize themselves with the information.

Every building occupant is responsible for knowing these procedures.

This plan for the University of Minnesota Rochester (UMR) is part of the comprehensive emergency preparedness planning system at the University of Minnesota (UM) which is striving to build a disaster resistant institution. In keeping with this philosophy the plan will be reviewed and updated annually. As the plan is updated it will be approved by and copied to the Department of Emergency Management. This plan is complete and the office of the Assistant Vice Chancellor for Finance and Operations is responsible for placing an evacuation plan near every entrance/exit to the buildings. This map includes locations of every exit, stairwell, Automated External Defibrillator (AED), Weather Alert Radio, severe weather shelter, and fire extinguisher. Annual training on this plan must include all key staff members and building occupants.
