- There are several long information regarding the standard operating procedure (SOP), policy and officials contact numbers that need to be reached during an emergency. Please read the information on the wall. You may snap its picture using your camera and read it before you go to bed.

- In case of emergency that requires evacuation, … Make sure you know how to answer these three questions: Do you know all exit doors? The main exit can be opened by pressing the Press button. Other doors can be opened manually. Make sure they are unlocked. If locked, please report it to the lab person-in-charge (PIC).
- Make sure the EXIT lamp lights up. Do a simple test. If it is not functioning, please report it to the lab PIC. Make sure there is no obstacle along the exit route. If yes, please report it to the lab PIC.
- Question: If evacuation is required, where do we need to go? Canteen (café)? Toilet? Prayer room? That is a good question. At every main door, we have prepared the emergency exit route plan to a certain location which is known as the Assembly Point. Please refer to it at the main door. If not available, please report it to the lab PIC.
