Fire

Evacuation Signal - a continuous ringing of bells means that staff and visitors on the floor on which it is ringing must proceed immediately via the nearest fire exit to the assembly point, which for New Century House is the entrance forecourt, and for the Miller Street Tower is the car park to the East of the building next to Riga Street.
If the bell rings, make yourself known to a fire warden or any member of staff. If you are in a lift when the fire alarm operates it will automatically take you to the ground floor.
