Safety Technology Exchange Edition: Daily Question (May 1)

We have walkie-talkies; we can use them to give instructions to the factory’s fire team during the evacuation.

First, the device must be handled in accordance with the emergency response plan, and an alarm must be triggered. (1) Remember the fire emergency number “119”. (2) After dialing the phone, stay calm and clearly inform the emergency center of the name and address of the location where the fire broke out, what is on fire, the intensity of the fire, and the extent of the fire. At the same time, pay attention to hearing clearly the questions posed by the other party in order to answer them correctly. (3) Provide your phone number and name to the other party so that they can get in touch. (4) After hanging up the phone, go immediately to the intersection to wait for the fire truck to arrive, so as to guide it to the site of the fire as quickly as possible. (5) If any new changes occur in the area where a fire is occurring, it is necessary to report them to the fire department promptly so that they can adjust their deployment of resources and firefighting tactics accordingly. (6) Quickly mobilize personnel to clear the fire access roads and remove obstacles, so that fire trucks can arrive at the scene and immediately take up the optimal positions to carry out firefighting and rescue operations. (7) In areas without telephones or fire departments, such as rural or remote regions, it is possible to use methods like beating gongs, blowing whistles, or shouting to alert people in the vicinity and mobilize them to put out the fire. (8) Nowadays, many public buildings are equipped with manual alarm buttons in their safety evacuation routes; in the event of a fire, one can break the glass covering the manual alarm button using an object or press the button directly to activate the fire alarm system.

Call 110, but it’s best to call the factory’s emergency number first.

1. Depending on the situation on site, if one is familiar with the device where the fire has broken out and knows the type of material involved, they can call 119 or the factory’s fire department directly. If the situation is not clear, one can contact the factory’s dispatch center. 2. Call 119 and provide information about the location of the fire, such as the specific address and street number; state the name of the device and the type of material involved (to help in selecting the appropriate extinguishing agent quickly); describe the intensity of the fire, how long it has been burning, whether there have been or could be explosions (to assist in making decision-making and directing emergency responses); indicate whether anyone is trapped and if medical assistance is needed; clarify whether the fire is spreading rapidly or if it’s a fire inside a building. It’s not necessary to provide your phone number, as the fire department will record it and print it out. 3. Call the factory’s fire brigade, and clearly indicate the location of the device, the workshop where it is situated, the type of material involved, whether there are any people trapped, the extent of the fire, and how long it has been burning. Things usually go fairly quickly inside the factory, plus they are well aware of the conditions on site. 4. Report the incident to the dispatch team by simply indicating the location of the fire and its intensity. What was said earlier isn’t very comprehensive either. Speaking of this, it’s worth adding that there are psychological issues related to emergencies. There are stories of people calling the police out of nervousness or urgency; they would say that a fire has broken out as soon as the call was connected, and then hang up. This not only fails to clarify the situation but also wastes and occupies communication resources. In emergency situations, everyone thinks of calling the police, but the number of phone lines available for such calls is limited. Therefore, it is not recommended for ordinary people to call the police unless they are sure about the situation. As passersby, one can simply report the incident to those who are aware of what’s going on. In most cases, the number of onlookers at an incident is greater than the number of people who are actually dealing with it, except perhaps at night or in remote areas where factories are located.

Once a fire is detected, we should call the police immediately; the earlier the alert, the less damage there will be. Before calling the police, observe and understand the situation of the fire calmly, choose the appropriate way to report it, so as to avoid panicking and speaking incoherently, which could waste time or even lead to false reports. 　When calling the police, keep the following 7 points in mind: (1) Remember the fire emergency number “119”. 　　(2) After dialing the phone, stay calm and clearly inform the emergency center of the name and address of the location where the fire broke out, what is on fire, the intensity of the fire, and the extent of the fire.
