Fire Safety

Fire Safety is responsible for the maintenance and operation of the Campus's Building Fire Control Systems. This includes the training of staff & students on fire evacuation, safety, maintenance, repair and testing of fire detection and fighting equipment. Fire safety is also responsible for the provision of advice on the Building Code of Australia and carrying out building inspections.

You should be aware of work carried out by the Fire Safety staff which includes:

Fire alarm testing
Evacuation drills
Knowing who is your building or fire warden
Conduct fire training seminars

If you see or smell smoke or fire then you must activate the local break glass and notify those around you to evacuate the building, as per the training program.

The University of New England respects and acknowledges that its people, courses and facilities are built on land, and surrounded by a sense of belonging, both ancient and contemporary, of the world's oldest living culture. In doing so, UNE values and respects Indigenous knowledge systems as a vital part of the knowledge capital of Australia. We recognise the strength, resilience and capacity of the Aboriginal community and pay our respects to the Elders past, present and future.
