An emergency is defined as any event that arises internally or from external sources which may adversely affect the safety of persons in a building or the community generally and requires immediate response by the occupants.

Note: If there is any doubt as to whether any hazardous situation constitutes an emergency, then it must be treated as an emergency.

Evacuation plans can be found on all levels in the lift lobby area. BCL requests that all tenants take the time to familiarise themselves with the emergency procedures.
