Spring 2018 KUBS Fire Emergency & Evacuation Training
On May 15th, the Business School had Spring 2018 KUBS Fire Emergency & Evacuation Training at the three buildings of the School: KUBS Main Building, LG-POSCO Building, and Hyundai Motor Hall. This test of evacuation plan asked participants to follow the instruction as in a real emergency.
‘Fog Machine’ was used to maximize the reality of the evacuation plan. As soon as the emergency alarm rang, an announcement of evacuation was released. The administrative staffs then guide the participants to the designated exits, wearing an orange emergency vest. Faculty members and students then followed the instruction of evacuating the building, using the nearest exits.
Then the staffs practiced the use of fire extinguisher. Dean Soo Young Kwon and Associate Dean Jaehwan Kim learned how to activate fire extinguisher and practiced the use. How it works is that you need to remove the safety pin near the fire and then hold the fire hose. The pin has to be pulled out without holding the handle of the extinguisher.
Dean Soo Young Kwon concluded the evacuation training by saying, “We hold fire evacuation training every semester to prepare for any unfortunate events. Thank you all for your cooperation”.
