Safety equipment
Sprinkler equipment
The sprinkler system is an automatic fire extinguishing system which starts extinguishing a fire by spraying water at the location of the fire and, at the same time, passes on a fire alert to the emergency centre. The functioning of the equipment is based on the principle that when the temperature exceeds a certain level, the capsule of the sprinkler breaks and water is released to flow through the sprinkler.
The sprinkler equipment is maintained according to the maintenance plan. The equipment is tested monthly and inspected every other year.
| Description | Kiinteistössä on sprinklerijärjestelmä, joka sammuttaa tulipalon |

Gas fire extinguishing system
A gaseous extinguishing system is used to protect individual premises against fire. The operation of the extinguishing agent is based on either displacing oxygen or absorbing heat from the space. The equipment must be maintained and tested at regular intervals according to the user and maintenance manual, and whenever the system has been triggered.
Once the system has been triggered, you must exit the premises and contact the emergency response centre.

Ventilation emergency stop
If the building is subjected to an external danger, such as fire gases from an adjacent building, the ventilation must be shut off. In such a case, the rescue authorities usually issue an emergency warning, providing additional instructions, such as to turn off ventilation systems.
Air ventilation can be stopped by anyone.
Ventilation emergency stop: Pääoven vierestä, paloilmoittimen läheltä
First aid
According to the Occupational Safety and Health Act (738/2002) 46 §, the employer is obligated to ensure the availability of first aid to employees and other personnel at the work place, to provide directions for getting first aid, as well as reserve enough first aid supplies at the work place or in its close proximity.
- The ambulance will be directed to: Pääovelle. Henkilökunta järjestää paikalle avustajan auttajia vastaan..
Fire safety
Fire alarm
The purpose of the automatic fire alarm system is to warn people in the property about an imminent fire. The system detects fires quickly as sensors react to the fire and the alarm bells start ringing. The system will alert the emergency response centre automatically.

- An on-call person makes the emergency notification if needed and guides the rescue department to the site of fire
Fire compartmentalisation
The purpose of fire compartmentalisation is to limit the spread of smoke and fire and to secure safe exiting. For this reason, it is very important that the fire doors are kept closed. Fire doors must not be wedged open.
Spaces which differ from each other fundamentally in terms of usage or fire load are divided up into separate fire compartments, if it is necessary for the protection of property or personnel. (usage way compartmentalisation)

| Kiinteistössä on palo-osastoittain palo-ovet, jotka saa tarvittaessa kiinni etänä | ||
Emergency exit routes
The principle of exit safety is that all spaces of the building must haveat least two exit routes at all times which do not require keys or othertools to open the doors. Doors are not to be kept double-locked during working hours. Objects are not to be stored in front of the exits.
There are the following types of evacuation procedure in the property:
| Building | Evacuation procedures |
|---|---|
| Kuntatalo | Lähintä merkattua poistumisreittiä pitkin. Henkilökunta avustaa asiakkaita poistumaan rakennuksesta. Ulkona siirtyminen välittömästi kokoontumispaikalle. |
Hot work
Hot work is defined as work in which sparks arise or in which naked flames or other heat sources are used and may cause a fire hazard. Such work includes e.g. oxyacetylene and arc welding, flame and arc cutting, disc cutting and metal grinding, which create sparks, as well as work involving the use of gas burners, other open fire or combustion air blowers. Alternative methods must always be considered for hot work due to the fire hazard it presents.
Carrying out hot work always requires a hot work licence. The person carrying out the hot work must have a valid hot work card.
The fire alarm system tender must take care of any deactivations needed so that the hot work or other refurbishment work does not cause an unnecessary fire alarm.
Any possible fire alarm system deactivations are to be fixed.

Action guidelines
The following pages contain a guide on accident prevention and on how to act in accident and danger situations. Read the action guide carefully!
The correct actions, solutions, and choices prevent and limit accidents. This way accidents can be minimised or they can be prevented altogether.
Safety and security are our shared concern!
Alerting help
In all urgent emergency situations, whether it be a police, fire department, paramedic, or a social worker case involving an urgent need for help CALL THE EMERGENCY NUMBER: 112
- Call the emergency number yourself if you can
- It is important to make the emergency call yourself, if the matter concerns you. The victim has more knowledge on the situation, based on which the dispatcher can send help accordingly. Using middle-men to make the call can delay getting the right kind of help on site.
- Tell what happened
- The emergency centre dispatcher will ask the caller about what happened so that they can send the appropriate assistance.
- Give the exact address and municipality
- The emergency centre might have several same addresses in different municipalities/cities in its service area. Therefore it is also important to know the name of the town/city/municipality where the accident has taken place.
- Answer the questions that are asked of you
- The questions asked by the dispatcher are important. They do not delay alarming for help. In urgent cases the dispatcher already alerts the authorities and other partners during the call, and gives them more information on what has happened.
- Act according to the information given to you
- The dispatcher is trained to give instructions in various types of situations. It is important to follow the given instructions. Correct initial actions often play an important role in the end result.
- End the call only after you're given permission to do so.
- Ending the call too soon may delay the help from arriving. After you are given the permission to end the call, end it. Keep the phone line open. The dispatcher or the help on its way may need additional information on what has happened.
In an emergency, the rescue department shall be guided as follows:

Civil defence
The purpose of the civil defence shelter is to protect people from collapses, explosion pressure waves and fragments, gases, radiation and fire. This property has 4 civil defence shelters. It is recommended that a civil defence shelter have an elected manager and deputy. It is good for the property's shelter's manager to learn how to use the equipment and how to prepare the shelter for use.
This property has 4 civil defence shelters:
| Location | Protection grade | Location of equipment |
|---|---|---|
| Kellarissa tila K813 | S1 | Väestönsuojassa |
| Kellarissa tila K814 | S1 | Väestönsuojassa |
| Kellarissa tila K212 | S1 | Väestönsuojassa |
| Kellarissa tila K213 | S1 | Väestönsuojassa |
Four of the civil defence shelters is in class S1. The civil defence shelter in protection class S1 is a newer shelter, built after 1971. It is possible to stay in this shelter model for long time periods. The shelter has a manually operated or mechanical air intake machinery, equipped with a pre-filter and an activated carbon particle filter.
The authorities provide instructions by radio if it is necessary to move to civil defence shelters and information on which of the public shelters people are to move to. Moving into the civil defence shelters therefore always happens as a result of direction by the authorities. Accidents occurring in normal times do not generally ever require taking cover in civil defence shelters, with taking cover indoors being sufficient. There are 110,000 spaces altogether in the civil defence shelters of Finland.
Storing movables
Storage of different kinds of objects may lead to a hazard of fire starting or spreading, the prevention of safe exit in an emergency situation and increased difficulty in extinguishing the fire.
The building's exit hallways and staircase areas must be kept walkable and clear of any obstacles.
- Exit corridors, staircases, inside hallways, and storage area passages
-
- It is not permitted to store any items.
- Under or near buildings
-
- It is not permitted to store flammable material or other goods by the walls of the building, e.g. garbage containers, piles of cardboard, or transportation trays
- Attention!
-
- The rescue authorities can permit single case exceptions, for example for storing a larger amount or allowing storage in a different place or limit storing, if safety requires that
Attachments
This rescue plan has the following attachments:
How to use a small fire extinguisher
Extinguishers
- Turn the extinguisher upside down and shake the extinguisher to ensure the powder's running.

Car shelter
The vehicle shelter is intended only for the storage of motor vehicles. The intended use is mentioned in the up-to-date construction permit.

- vehicles intended for the care of the property.
