Accidents & emergencies
The law obliges University management to prepare for emergencies, provide training, and rehearse.
University policy is that while limited support can be provided centrally, it is for Heads of Department to use risk assessment to identify likely emergencies, and plan accordingly, within their personal area of responsibility. The links on this page will connect you to material that will help with this process.
