Evacuation (No Fire Alarm)

NorQuest College authorities may determine a need to evacuate a building, or a portion of it, without activating the fire alarm system. If such a decision is made, students, employees and visitors will be made aware of the evacuation through NorQuest College’s mass notification system.

Follow these evacuation instructions:

• Immediately leave the building, in an orderly manner, by the nearest stairwell.
• Do not use elevators during an emergency evacuation.
• Those who are physically unable to proceed down the stairs are to remain on the floor near the emergency exit and wait for assistance.
• Do not change direction in stairwells.
• Should designated exits be endangered, occupants are to proceed to an alternate exit without awaiting further direction.
• Follow specific directions of a designated emergency warden. Failure to follow the direction of an emergency warden may result in disciplinary action.
• After leaving the building, move away from the building as directed by authorities.
• Everyone must remain outside the building until the 'all clear' signal is delivered.
