Introduction

The drafting, upkeep and communication of the rescue plan are based on the requirement of the Rescue Act (379/2011). In this rescue plan, there is an account:

  1. for the conclusions of the assessment of hazards and risks;
  2. for the safety arrangements of the building and the premises used in the operations;
  3. regarding the instructions to be given to people for the prevention of accidents and acting in accident and danger situations;
  4. other possible actions for independent preparation at the location. (Rescue Act 379/2011, Section 15))

The rescue plan must be kept up to date and it must be communicated in the necessary way to the persons in the relevant building or other site. (Government Decree on Rescue Action 407/2011, Section 2.)

There are also other requirements for safety in the Rescue Act; the most important of these are:

  1. the risk of the starting, intentional starting and spreading of a fire is slight;
  2. the people in the building can vacate the building in the event of fire or other sudden danger situation or they can be rescued in another way;
  3. rescue operations are possible in the event of fire or another accident;
  4. the safety of rescue personnel has been taken into account. (Rescue Act 379/2011, Section 9))

The following equipment and devices must be kept in working order and serviced and inspected appropriately:

  1. extinguishing, rescue and prevention equipment;
  2. devices that facilitate extinguishing and rescue work;
  3. fire detection, alarm and other devices signalling the risk of an accident;
  4. the lighting and signs of the exit routes;
  5. the equipment and devices of the civil defence shelters (Rescue Act 379/2011, Section 12))

The owner and holder of the building and the operator must, for their part:

  1. the starting of fires is to be prevented, as well as the arising of other hazardous situations;
  2. the protection of persons, property and the surroundings in danger situations is to be prepared for;
  3. the extinguishing of fires, and other such rescue measures that they are able to do independently, are to be prepared for;
  4. start action for securing safe exit from fires and other danger situations, as well as action for making rescue operations easier. (Rescue Act 379/2011, Section 14))

Hand-held fire extinguishers should be inspected:
  • at least yearly when the extinguisher is subjected to factors affecting its operational ability, such as moisture, vibration or fluctuations in temperature (outdoor areas)
  • at least once every two years (indoor areas)
Fire hydrants should be inspected:
  • The functionality of the rapid fire hydrants should be checked every year. A pressure test for the rapid fire hydrant hoses should be performed at five-year intervals.

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.

Sprinkler equipment service

The sprinkler system must always be assigned a nominated person or company, who will service the equipment in accordance with maintenance instructions. Persons carrying out servicing must have the appropriate expertise and information required for the servicing.

Maintenance work that is comparable in technical complexity to the installation of new equipment may only be carried out by a shop specialised in the installation and maintenance of sprinkler equipment and listed by the Finnish Safety and Chemicals Agency. The person responsible for ordering maintenance must be named if maintenance is obtained as a purchased service. There must be a written contract for the purchased maintenance service.

  • An on-call person to supervise the fire alarm centre
  • 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.

The floors, basement floors and attic of the building are generally divided into separate fire compartments.

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)

Fire compartmentalisations in the builidings:
Building Type Description
Vanha kutomo Floor compartmentalisation, Usage method compartmentalisation Palo-osastointi P1, rakennusosin EI60. Osasointi kerroksittain ja käyttötarkoituksen mukaan.

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:

Gathering area: Kutomonkujan ja Yhtiönkadun välinen pysäköintialue

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.

Hot work licences can be granted by the following people responsible for hot work:

Juha Avellan
Renor Oy
phone 0405796288
juha.avellan@renor.fi

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.

Evacuation procedures

In an emergency situation, exiting will be led and directed by
Yrityksen vastuuhenkilö johtaa muiden työntekijöiden ja asiakkaiden poistumista.
When and where to exit?
Poistuminen lähintä turvallista poistumistietä opasteiden mukaisesti.
What has to be closed?

What has to be done and who does it before exiting?
Käynnissä olevat laitteet suljetaan niitä käyttävien tai niiden läheisyydessä olevien toimesta. Henkilökunta opastaa ja auttaa asiakkaat ulos rakennuksesta.

Prevention of afterdamage

The objective of the prevention of afterdamage is to prevent damage arising, limit and minimise the effects of any damage that has arisen, and to restore the situation to its previous state as quickly as possible.

Damage assessment
Vahinkojen arviointi suoritetaan kiinteistöpäällikön toimesta tapauskohtaisesti. Tukena käytetään tarvittaessa vakuutusyhtiötä riippuen vahinkotyypistä.
Restoring the situation to normal
Normaaliin toimintaan pyritään palaamaan mahdollisimman ripeästi. Tarvittavat korjaustoimenpiteet tilataan välittömästi.
Restoring damage to normal
Korjaustoimenpiteiden välitön aloittaminen. Vahingon kartoitus ja työn tilaus. Tarvittaessa yhteys vakuutusyhtiöön vakuutuskorvausten selvittämiseksi. Rikostapauksissa aina yhteys poliisiin.
Replacement premises and systems
Mikäli jokin rakennuksen osa vaatii korjausta, eristetään se korjausten ajaksi ja jatketaan toimintaa normaalisti mahdollisuuksien mukaan. Jos jokin järjestelmän vika tai rakennuksen osan vaurioituminen vaarantaa työntekijöiden tai asiakkaiden turvallisuuden, rakennus tai sen osa suljetaan korjausten ajaksi.
A discussion in the workplace and after-care, if required
Ongelmatilanteet käydään läpi työntekijöiden kanssa esimiehen toimesta. Tärkeintä on, että työntekijöillä on selvä kuva siitä, miten tilannetta hoidetaan ja miten heidän tulee toimia poikkeuksellisessa tilanteessa.

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:

Automaattisen palohälytyksen sattuessa pelastuslaitos ohjataan paloilmoitinkeskukselle. Muussa tapauksessa ohjaus lähimmälle pääsisäänkäynnille.

Fire action guide, when safe exits are blocked

Sometimes a fire in another location prevents safe exit from the building. In these cases it is smartest to stay in a smokeless space and keep all doors and other openings closed.

Stay in the fire compartment that you are in.
  • It is safe to stay behind the fire door. Fire doors withstand fire for at least half an hour.
  • Jumping from a height has fatal consequences, reamining in a smoke-free area does not.
Go to a window and attract attention. If you do not manage to do this, let people know your location by calling 112.
Follow directions from the authorities.

Action in a fire alarm situation

The building has an automatic fire alarm system, which sends an alert to the rescue department. Everyone must vacate the building immediately when they hear the fire alarm.

  • Bring outdoor clothes with you if they are nearby.
  • Close doors and windows
  • Use the nearest escape route to exit the building.
  • Direct customers and guests.
  • Call the number 112 from a safe location and provide further information about the situation. At the same time, you will make sure that the emergency center has been notified about the fire.
  • Move to the gathering area; do not stay in front of the entrances.
  • No-one may leave the gathering area without permission.
Gathering area: Kutomonkujan ja Yhtiönkadun välinen pysäköintialue

The danger is only over when the rescue department gives permission to return to the building. The safety personnel of the property passes on the announcement concerning moving back inside to the personnel.

Toiminta kokoontumispaikalla

Tilanteen mukaan on pohdittava, onko turvallista jäädä nimetylle kokoontumispaikalle, vai onko ihmiset ohjattava toisaalle: esimerkiksi ennalta sovittuun sisätilaan tai lähistöllä olevaan kiinteistöön.

Kokoontumispaikalta ei saa poistua ilman pelastusviranomaisen lupaa. Toimintaa kokoontumispaikalla johtaa kiinteistön henkilöstön esimiehet. Esimiehet seuraavat tilanteen edistymisestä ja ilmoittavat milloin kiinteistöön saa palata.

Muistettavia asioita kokoontumispaikalla:

  • mahdollisista loukkaantuneista huolehtiminen, ilmoitettava turvallisuushenkilöstölle
  • liikuntarajoitteisista tai muuten vajaakuntoisista huolehtiminen
  • ilmoitettava, mikäli tietää jonkun jääneen sisälle

Assisting people with reduced mobility in emergency situations

In an emergency situation, the movement of people with reduced mobility out of the building may be difficult and slow. Try to help them as much as you are able to.

Things to consider when helping people with reduced mobility
  • Help a person with reduced mobility to exit, within the limits of your own capabilities.
  • Take care of the person you helped also after getting out.

Water damage

Väkivallan uhatessa

Aseettomassa uhkaustilanteessa, toimi seuraavasti.

  • Käyttäydy rauhallisesti ja pyri rauhoittamaan henkilö omalla käytökselläsi.
  • Varmista, ettet käännä selkääsi tai ajaudu nurkkaan, jotta sinulla on aina pakotie uhkaavasti käyttäytyvän henkilön läheisyydestä.
  • Mahdollisuuksien mukaan pyydä apua.
  • Pakene ja auta muita pakenemaan paikalta

Pidä huolta omasta turvallisuudestasi. Pyri ohjaamaan uhkaava henkilö paikkaan, jossa hän ei voi olla vahingoksi muille. Tapauksen jälkeen ilmoita tapahtuneesta aina poliisille.

Jos uhkaavalla henkilöllä on ase, toimi seuraavasti.

  • Älä tee vastarintaa.
  • Tee vain mitä uhkaaja käskee.
  • Pyri mahdollisuuksien mukaan varoittamaan muita.
  • Ovien sulkemisella voidaan rajoittaa henkilön kulkua kiinteistössä.
  • Tilanteen jälkeen, soita 112, jotta paikalle saadaan ammattiapua mahdollisimman nopeasti. Kuuntele ohjeita ja toimi niiden mukaan.

Jokainen uhkaus ja havainto mahdollisesta uhkatilanteesta on otettava vakavasti ja niistä on ilmoitettava välittömästi poliisille. Omalla käyttäytymisellä voi olla mahdollista vaikuttaa tilanteen kehittymiseen, ota siksi kaikki uhkatilanteet vakavasti ja pyri rauhoittamaan jo alkaneet tilanteet.

Bomb threat

A bomb threat is often unfounded and made by a disturbed individual, but it should always be taken seriously, and each threat should be notified to the police. In this situation, it is important to keep calm.

When the threat is made by phone

  • Remain calm. Prolong the call.
  • Make notes. Write the threat down word-for-word.
  • Ask questions.
    • Where is the bomb?
    • What does the bomb look like?
    • When will the bomb explode?
    • Why?
  • Try to get your colleague's attention already during the phone call, so that he/she can inform the person responsible for safety during the call.
  • Pay attention to the caller's speaking style and tone of voice.
    • Does he/she use noticeable dialect or other special characteristics?
    • Is he/she agitated?
    • Is he/she reading the message from a piece of paper?
  • Listen to the background noises as well (e.g. traffic or discussions in the background).
  • After the call, notify the safety and security personnel on your premises or property (cf. chapter of safety and security personnel).
  • If this is not possible, call the police immediately at 112 and act according to their instructions.

A suspicious object or threatening letter

  • Do not touch the object.
  • If the item in question is a letter or other such object that you have handled, pay attention to the places you have touched and place the letter in a plastic pocket, for example.
  • Notify immediately the personnel responsible for safety and security on your premises and the property (cf. chapter on safety and security personnel) as well as the police at emergency number 112.
  • Isolate the area as well as possible. Keep in mind possible police investigations (fingerprints and footprints are first-class evidence).
  • Do not panic. Act according to the instructions from the police and the safety personnel.

Public warning signal

The public warning signal is a one-minute-long ascending and descending tone or a warning announcement by the authorities. The length of the ascending tone is 7 seconds. The public warning signal means an immediate danger threatening the public.

The All Clear signal is a one-minute-long monotonous signal. It is an announcement of the threat or danger having passed.

Act in the following way after you've heard the public warning signal
  • Proceed indoors. Close doors, windows, ventilation holes, and air conditioning devices.
  • Turn on the radio and wait for instructions.
  • Avoid using the phone to prevent telephone lines from getting jammed.
  • Do not leave the area unless urged to do so by the authorities.

Gas hazard

Public warning signal in danger situations concerning gas
Do the following
  • If you are indoors and can smell gas:
    • stay inside, get to the top floors and listen for further information on the radio
    • place a wet cloth over your mouth and breathe through it
  • If you are outside when you smell gas but are not able to get indoors:
    • hurry into side wind from underneath the gas cloud
    • try to get as high as possible, for example to the top of a hill
Additional information on taking cover from gas
  • Switch off air conditioning devices and close doors and windows tightly.
  • You can also close or tape inside doors and stay in upwind areas.
  • If you smell gas you can breathe through a moist and spongy cloth.
  • The authorities will announce on radio or with vehicles with loudspeakers when the gas cloud has dispersed. Ventilate indoors well after the event.
  • Stay on the upper floors until the danger is over.
  • Do not go into the basement.

Radiation hazard

A public warning signal is given upon the threat of radiation.

Go inside.

  • Close doors, windows, ventilation holes, and air conditioning devices.
  • The centre and basement of the building are the best places to take shelter. Take iodine tablets only when advised to do so by the authorities (there should be two iodine tablets per person).

Avoid moving outside

Additional instructions
You will get additional information from your city's rescue authorities, from broadcast media, and from Yle's (the Finnish Broadcasting Company's) Teletext page 867. You can also find information from the Finnish Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority's website www.stuk.fi and the website of the rescue authorities www.pelastustoimi.fi.

Blackouts

In the event of a power cut, the safety lights will remain on.

Using lifts during a power cut is not possible.

Action during a power cut

Electricity is down in the operating premises, but the lights of public areas are still working

  • If possible, check the fuses in the operating premises' own electrical switchboard.
  • If the problem was not solved, contact property maintenance.

Electricity is down in both the operating premises and the public areas

  • Use a flashlight
  • Direct others, if so needed.

In the event of a power cut, lifts will stop working. Should you be stuck on a lift due to a power cut or other failure, act as follows:

Contact the lift maintenance emergency line:

  • by mobile phone - (KONE Hissit Oy, 080015063)

When necessary, you can call the general emergency number 112.

Civil defence

This property does not have its own civil defence shelter.

The property has a civil defence shelter. Rakennus 19: 150 henkilön S1-luokan väestönsuojasuoja .

The purpose of the civil defence shelter is to protect people from collapses, explosion pressure, fragments and radiation. Moving into civil defence shelters is always done through directions from the authorities. Accidents occurring in normal times do not generally ever require taking cover in civil defence shelters, with taking cover indoors being sufficient.

Safeguard evasion

Safeguard evasion means controlled relocations of members of the population from a danger zone in a situation where this is considered less risky than taking cover indoors. Such situations are for example fast-developing dangerous substance accidents, extensive harm caused by exhaust fumes, danger of explosion, and radiation situations.

Safeguard evasion is always done on a special order from the authorities. The authorities have planned in advance to perform a safeguard evasion from the area and reserved the necessary transportation equipment for it.

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, basement and storage area passages
  • It is not permitted to store any items.
Basement spaces
  • Do not store easily flammable material.
  • Storage of flammable liquids (e.g. liquefied gas and petrol) prohibited.
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

Liiketilan haltijan velvollisuudet

Tilan haltijan tai toiminnanharjoittajan on mahdollisuuksiensa mukaan valvottava, että työpaikalla noudatetaan tulipalon ja muun onnettomuuden ehkäisemiseksi ja henkilöturvallisuuden varmistamiseksi annettuja säännöksiä ja määräyksiä. Nimetään turvallisuudesta vastaava henkilö, joka huolehtii turvallisuusasioista ja toimii yhteistyössä kiinteistön vastuuhenkilöiden kanssa.

Tilanhaltijan sekä toiminnanharjoittajan on osaltaan huolehdittava siitä, että rakennus, rakennelma ja sen ympäristö pidetään sellaisessa kunnossa, että

  • tulipalon syttymisen, tahallisen sytyttämisen sekä leviämisen vaara on vähäinen
  • rakennuksessa olevat henkilöt pystyvät tulipalossa tai muussa äkillisessä vaaratilanteessa poistumaan rakennuksesta tai heidät voidaan pelastaa muulla tavoin
  • pelastustoiminta on tulipalon tai muun onnettomuuden sattuessa mahdollista.

Helposti syttyvää materiaalia tai muuta tavaraa ei saa säilyttää ullakolla, kellarissa, kulku- tai poistumisteillä, rakennuksen alla tai sen välittömässä läheisyydessä.

Seuraavat varusteet ja laitteet on pidettävä toimintakunnossa sekä huollettava ja tarkastettava asianmukaisesti:

  • sammutusvälineet
  • palonilmaisu-, hälytys- ja muut onnettomuuden vaaraa ilmaisevat laitteet
  • poistumisreittien opasteet ja valaistus.

Tilan haltija ja toiminnanharjoittaja vastaavat osaltaan laitteiden kunnosta ja ilmoittavat epäkohdista vastuuhenkilölle.

Tilan haltijan sekä toiminnanharjoittajan on osaltaan

  • ehkäistävä tulipalojen syttymistä ja muiden vaaratilanteiden syntymistä
  • varauduttava henkilöiden, omaisuuden ja ympäristön suojaamiseen vaaratilanteissa
  • varauduttava tulipalojen sammuttamiseen ja muihin sellaisiin pelastustoimenpiteisiin, joihin ne omatoimisesti kykenevät
  • ryhdyttävä toimenpiteisiin poistumisen turvaamiseksi tulipaloissa ja muissa vaaratilanteissa sekä toimenpiteisiin pelastustoiminnan helpottamiseksi.
  • Laadittava pelastussuunnitelma, mikäli PelAs 1§ tai PelLaki 18§ niin edellyttää.

Alkusammuttimien käyttöohjeet

Sammuttimet

  • Kierrä sammutinta ylösalaisin ja ravista sammutinta, tämä varmistaa jauheen juoksevuuden.
  • Vedä varmistinsokka irti.
  • Lähesty paloa tuulen suunnasta.
  • Jos olet sisällä lähesty matalana lattianrajassa, tämä parantaa näkyvyyttä.
  • Ota sammuttimen letkun päästä ote ja suuntaa sammutusaine liekkien juureen.
  • Sammutusta voi tehostaa edestakaisin suuntautuvalla liikkeellä.
  • Koko palava alue on peitettävä sammutepilveen.
  • Liekkien sammuttua sammuttamisen voi lopettaa.
  • Tarkkaile palanutta kohdetta ja varmistu, että palo on sammunut.
  • Mikäli kohde syttyy uudelleen, toista sammutus.
  • Soita 112

Sammutuspeitteet

  • Ota kiinni peitteen nurkista ja suojaa kätesi peitteen sisään.
  • Jos olet ulkona, lähesty paloa tuulen suunnasta.
  • Ojenna kädet suoriksi.
  • Levitä peite palon päälle.
  • Pidä peitettä tiiviisti palon päällä ja varmistu, että palo on sammunut.
  • Jätä peite paikalleen.
  • Soita 112

Pikapaloposti

  • Avaa pikapalopostikaappi. Riko tarvittaessa muovinen lukonsuojus esimerkiksi kolauttamalla sitä kyynärpäällä.
  • Avaa sulkuventtiili ja vedä letku ulos.
  • Käännä letkun päässä oleva suutin auki ja aloita sammuttaminen turvallisen matkan päästä.
  • Suuntaa vesisuihku liekkien juureen ja jatka sammuttamista kunnes palo on sammunut.
  • Varmista että palo on sammunut. Tukahduta tai kastele vielä mahdollisesti kytevät kohdat.
  • Soita 112

Älä aseta itseäsi vaaraan. Vältä savun hengittämistä. Mikäli palon sammutus ei onnistu, siirry turvaan. Sulje tilan ovi rajoittaaksesi paloa.

Car heating cables

Car heating cables should be detached from the power outlet and the cable in the outlet should not be left hanging on the heating pole. The cover of the outlet box should also be kept locked.

An open outlet box and a freely hanging heating cable with voltage cause danger of an electric shock. If the plug-in unit falls into a puddle or snow, it may electrify the surrounding area. In addition, the heating cable may break and become a hazard while clearing snow in the area, for example. An open outlet box is susceptible to vandalism.

Users should be advised on the safe use and storage of the car heating cable. The housing organisation is responsible for the safety of the property, and if, for example, an external party is injured, the housing organisation will be held responsible. A car user who has incorrectly left the cable attached to the outlet is also responsible for their part for any possible damages.

When pre-heating a car, you should only use a heating cable suitable for the purpose and an interior space heater designed for cars. Using an extension cable should be avoided as extension cables are generally not child-proof and they are easily left on the ground, where they are subjected to water, dirt and snow. The connection cable and condition of the plugs should be checked at regular intervals.

If the car heating equipment is not used or their condition is not preserved, danger of an electric shock to the user or another person follows. It also poses a fire hazard.

Key security

A log must be maintained of released keys and it is important to make sure they are returned when the person's work or residential contract ends.

Keys are released based on need upon signing them out. The keys must remain continuously under control of the person who signed them off. Any key or access tag in your name is not to be given to a third party in any circumstances.
