HEALTH AND SAFETY
First Aid
If you need a first aider during working hours, please speak to the reception team (S0.00 73525), who will call a first aider for you. If you need a first aider at other times you can call university security services on (2)72944 or (2)89999.
Fire Evacuation:
In the event of an evacuation the assembly point is marked at the far side of the Triton Fountain in the Humanities Building courtyard. Please make sure when you evacuate the building you completely clear the Penrose paving area (where you naturally exit if coming via cores 2 and 3 out through the fire exits either side of the main entrance). If you exit the building via cores 1 and 5 you will come out of the building at the very ends, where you then need to come around the building and in to the Humanities courtyard.
SMOKING POLICY
Smoking (including electronic cigarettes/vaping) is not permitted anywhere in the Andrew Wiles Building including on the roof terraces.
Smoking is only permitted outside on the ROQ site at dedicated marked smoking points that are at least 10 metres from any building. There is a smoking point in the Humanities Courtyard (towards the road end of the chapel) reached by exiting the building via the foyer sliding doors and going beyond the chapel. There is also a smoking point by the fenced in area, near the roundabout and entrance to the central empty area of the site, reached by exiting the building via the foyer revolving door and turning left.
For those using electronic cigarettes/vaping outside the building dedicated vaping locations (separate from the smoking areas) are currently being defined by FM. There will be 3 vaping areas, one in the humanities courtyard near the chapel (but separate from the smoking point), one near the Harkness building, and one near the Blavatnik School of Government.
