Each UCL building has been given a risk rating, and this dictates how often fire safety reviews take place, as well as how often departmental staff and fire evacuation marshals should receive full fire safety training. UCL Departments must ensure that: all staff are adequately trained on induction; this training is refreshed periodically (depending on the fire risk rating); fire evacuation marshals (FEM) are appointed for each floor the building; fire evacuation marshals are suitably trained, including refresher trained periodically (depending on the fire risk rating); departmental areas and the risks contained therein are managed safely; appropriate arrangements are in place to ensure the safe evacuation of disabled people; Fire Safety s - UCL Fire Safety Team will periodically carry out fire risk assessments and fire safety reviews. The period in which these reviews will take place will be dictated by the determined risk of the building. Every October - a fire drill will be carried out in most UCL buildings and following the drill, fire FEMs will receive a Toolbox Talk of relevant information to report to their colleagues. A report will be published on line, and this process will act as an annual training supplement to ensure that UCL people remain aware of the significant findings of our fire risk management process. 1. Introduction This short guide provides basic fire safety information to for occupants and visitors to Bidborough House.
