Emergency Procedures
Important
To alert Security to an emergency:
- Dial ext. 1000 from any Dawson phone, from any Emergency Call Box located on each corridor OR call 514-931-8731, ext. 1000 from your cellphone.
- State the nature of the emergency calmly and clearly.
- In an emergency, please follow the instructions displayed on posters placed around the College in teaching spaces, offices, and in common areas. Familiarize yourself with these more detailed instructions below which can also be accessed through Omnivox for students and employees and through the Employee Portal in SharePoint.
Note
During an emergency, Security will communicate via the intercom to inform the community of the measures to be taken, whenever possible. In some cases, an alert cannot be broadcast over the intercom. An alert will also be broadcast on the College’s screens when possible.
Know the location(s) of the Emergency Phones
- The evacuation plans, posted at the start of each corridor throughout the College, indicate the location(s) of the nearest Emergency Phone.
- In case of emergency, look for a red sign at eye level and you will find a stainless steel box on the wall below it.
