3 3 1. INTRODUCTION The University of Newcastle (UoN) has a legal obligation under the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 to ensure the health and safety of employees and visitor s to the University. This includes ensuring that fire systems and procedures are properly maintained and training requirements are undertaken to ensure staff are fully aware of their fire safety responsibilities. To ensure this level of safety, fire risks must be assessed and mitigated and emergency procedures implemented while ensuring the training and awareness of all staff in their responsibility to minimize fire risk and ability to report / respond accordingly. Fire is identified as a considerable risk in any organisation that has a large building infrastructure. This (FSMP) has been prepared so that the University can appropriately manage this risk. 2. PURPOSE This document was developed by Risk and Assurance Services in conjunction with Infrastructure and, Health and Safety and Security Services. The FSMP is designed to provide information on how the University manages fire risks. The FSMP is a sub plan to the University s Emergency Management Plan (EMP) which provides information for the controls to be implemented and steps that need to be undertaken to manage the University s emergency response. 3. OBJECTIVES There are four main objectives of the FSMP: To ensure a comprehensive fire risk management process is applied across the University aimed to minimize University risk and to protect life and property. To ensure that fire safety problems that arise are quickly and effectively contained and resolved. To ensure that the University complies fully with its legal obligations in relation to fire safety. To ensure that appropriate training and information is provided on fire safety to UoN staff. 4. SCOPE AND LIMITATIONS The term fire safety encompasses many aspects including; The methodology for carrying out fire safety risk audits.

Revision 1 Page 6 of 9
7 7 8.3 Fire Safety Inspections and Risk Assessment Fire risk assessments and inspections of buildings and grounds belonging to the University are essential in identifying real and potential fire risks and hazards. University buildings are to be inspected annually by a contracted fire service provider who will provide a Fire Safety Statement. Annual Fire Safety Statements will include an assessment of Fire Risk which will be in accordance with the University s Risk Management Policy. It will include assessment of the location of the building, the equipment within the building and the storage of materials and activities within the building. Additionally, insurance companies may carry out risk assessment audits every 3 years of University buildings or carry out assessments as part of a larger program. Audit reports are to be reviewed jointly by Infrastructure and and Risk and Assurance Services to determine required actions and funding allocations. Records of Annual Fire Safety Statements will be kept by Infrastructure and. Insurance company audits will be kept by Risk and Assurance Services. 8.4 ECO Members Management General An Emergency Control Organisation (ECO) member database is in place to assist in managing the provision of ECO members in all areas of the University as required by AS3745 Planning for emergencies in facilities. Authority is bestowed to the ECO to enlist the assistance of other people during an emergency response. It is the responsibility of Faculties, Schools and Campus Partners to appoint an ECO for their respective areas, ensuring adequate coverage, and to report membership changes to the Senior Safety Advisor. In the event of an emergency event, where all identified Emergency Wardens are not in attendance, the senior management person in attendance will take the ECO role to ensure a safe and efficient evacuation Training ECO Training is coordinated through the Senior Safety Advisor and provided through a contracted service provider. The course is delivered by a qualified fire contractor with manuals provided to all participants. It is the responsibility of all ECO members to attend one training course every 3 years. The ECO database can identify ECO members who have not attended training. Attendance reports will be provided to Faculties and Schools to ensure required training objectives are met. Revision 1 Page 7 of 9
8 8 8.5 Fire Evacuation Drills Fire evacuation drills will be carried out annually within individual buildings on University campuses. The purpose of these drills is to educate building occupants in the correct manner of evacuating a building in the event of an emergency situation and to meet University legal obligations. All evacuations will be conducted by Security Services with the assistance of the relevant ECO members to an annual schedule prepared by Health and Safety. Post de-briefing sessions will accompany each evacuation drill. Buildings that are assessed by the Associate Director, Health and Safety as a high fire safety risk may be required to undertake additional fire evacuation drills. Records of completed fire evacuation drills will be kept by Health and Safety. 9. TESTING OF FIRE EVACUATION ALARM SYSTEMS Testing Of Fire Evacuation Systems Tests of building fire evacuation systems are to be coordinated by a contracted fire service provider. Compliance books are kept in the building fire panel. Where possible, Emergency Wardens should be trained in the use of the evacuation system including identification of fire alarm tones where applicable. ECO members will report any faults or problems by submitting details on a maintenance request (Maximo) which will be actioned by Infrastructure and. 10. FIRE EMERGENCY RESPONSE Automated fire alarm systems on University sites are monitored and responded to by the NSW Fire and Rescue Service and Security Services. In the event of a fire alarm, the ECO members will evacuate the building as per the Emergency Management Plan. In the case of a fire where the alarm system has not been activated, Security Services are to be contacted on with details of the location of the fire and details of any injuries and actions taken to evacuate the building. It should be noted that not all buildings are fitted with automated fire alarms. If a fire occurs in a building which is not fitted with a fire alarm, Emergency Wardens will need to raise the alarm verbally and ensure that all building occupants are notified. 11. MANAGEMENT OF FIRE SAFETY ISSUES / INCIDENTS This section describes the process for managing fire safety issues and incidents at the University of Newcastle. The aim is to define the reporting line for such issues and incidents to ensure timely management of the problem Notification of Problems Emergency Wardens and building occupants can assist the management of fire safety by reporting any issues or problems that they may identify. Generally, fire safety issues will be identified during routine maintenance and inspections by the Fire Maintenance Contractor. Revision 1 Page 8 of 9
9 9 Systems and equipment failures will be automatically identified through the network fire system that triggers a fault alarm when attention is required. Any fire issues that are otherwise identified may be reported via Maximo requests with follow up to the Infrastructure and Unit Incident Investigation or Identification of Fire Safety Risk In the event of an actual fire or the identification of a fire safety risk, the issue will be fully investigated by one or more of the following: Jointly by Risk and Assurance Services and Health & Safety. The NSW Fire and Rescue Service Investigation Unit (serious fire) Other external assistance depending on the nature and extent of the problem. Insurance agency if a claim is lodged. The Complaint/Incident Investigation report will be reviewed by all relevant stakeholders to agree a timely action plan to assess and address any gaps or deficiencies in the controls/measures in place to mitigate future fire risks. Responsibility for resolution of issues and completion of associated actions will be assigned Remediation of Issues The majority of fire safety issues at UoN can be rectified by Infrastructure and Facilities Services. Depending on the extent of the problem and the associated risk, a service contractor or other external organisation may be engaged to affect remedial action. Alternatively if it is a safety issue involving building occupants, the problem may be managed at the source for example, through a change in work practices. If the issue is identified as requiring major refurbishment or asset replacement work, the final resolution will be prioritised and placed on a works program. Revision 1 Page 9 of 9
