Planning for emergencies
Chemicals and smoke
If there is an incident involving chemical or toxic fumes or smoke, you should:
- Stay indoors until you are advised to leave by the emergency services
- Close all doors and windows and block obvious vents
- Tune in to local media for local announcements
- Switch off air conditioning, ventilation units and fans
- Extinguish all naked flames
- You may need to be evacuated - get an overnight bag ready
