  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))

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
Itämerenkatu 1 Floor compartmentalisation, Usage method compartmentalisation Rakennuksen paloluokka on P1. Kerrokset omia palo-osastoja. Tekniset tilat, uloskäytävinä toimivat porrashuoneet ja varastot omia palo-osastoja.

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

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:

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:

Pelastuslaitos ohjataan paloilmoitinkeskukselle, joka sijaitsee Mechelininkadun puolella, talon B-osassa katutasossa. Paloilmoittimen hoitaja opastaa paloilmoittimella

Erityistoimintaohjeita ravintolalle tulipalotilanteessa

  1. Evakuoi asiakkaat ravintolasta
  2. Sulje ovet estääksesi savun ja palon leviämistä
  3. Hälytä palokunta soittamalla numeroon 112
  4. Sammuta, jos palo on pieni eikä savua vielä ole
  5. Rasvapalon sammutus vain tukahduttamalla, esim. kannella tai sammutuspeitteellä. Muista myös sammuttaa ilmastointi (IV-hätäseis)

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: Itämerenkatu 5:n edustalla sijaitseva aukio

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.

Paloilmoittimen hoitajan toiminta

Palohälytyksen sattuessa paloilmoittimen hoitaja siirtyy välittömästi paloilmoitinkeskuksen luokse rakennuksen B-osaan katutasoon. Paloilmoittimen hoitajan tehtävänä on opastaa pelastuslaitosta, jotta hälytyksen syy saadaan selville mahdollisimman nopeasti.

Infon toiminta

  • Tilaa hissit 1. kerrokseen ja estää niiden käytön laittamalla tuolit ovien väliin.
  • Opastaa vieraita ulos ja kohti kokoontumispaikkaa.

Suojelujohtajan toiminta

Paikalla ollessaan suojelujohtaja siirtyy palohälytyksen tullessa ala-aulaan ja avustaa infoa vieraiden opastamisessa. Kokoontumispaikalle siirryttyään suojelujohtaja on yhteydessä pelastuslaitokseen ja ilmoittaa jatkotoimenpiteistä pelastuslaitoksen antamien ohjeiden mukaisesti.

Action in the gathering area

Gathering area: Itämerenkatu 5:n edustalla sijaitseva aukio
Kokoontumispaikka
Kokoontumispaikka

When people have left the building and proceeded to the gathering area, the representative of the personnel begins to direct activities. Based on the situation at hand, it is necessary to consider whether it is safe to remain in the designated gathering area or if people should be directed elsewhere, for example into a pre-arranged interior area or to a property in the vicinity.

No-one may leave the gathering area without the permission of the person responsible for the gathering area. Activity in the gathering area is directed by the building's safety personnel. The safety personnel give information on the progress of the situation and notify when it is permitted to return into the property.

Factors to bear in mind in the gathering area:

  • Taking care of anyone who may be injured; the safety personnel are to be informed
  • looking after people with reduced mobility or otherwise poor physical condition
  • if one is aware of someone having remained inside, this is to be reported

Back-up gathering area

Back-up gathering area: Ilmoitetaan tarvittaessa

If the gathering area is not safe, then people are to move on to a safe back-up gathering area defined separately by the protection managers. Authorities will also provide instructions about shelter locations for long-term shelter.

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.

  • 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.

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 3 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 3 civil defence shelters:

Location Protection grade Surface area Defence shelter places Location of equipment
Kellarikerros, A-puoleinen pääty S1 71 m² 94 Suojahäkissä
Kellarikerros, A-puoleinen pääty S1 43 m² 57 Suojahäkissä
Kellarikerros, A-puoleinen pääty S1 86 m² 114 Suojahäkissä

Three 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.
