the entire duration of the visit.

f your work on site is other than stocktaking, loading or unloading, then you will most likely require a Work
Permit. This permit must be obtained before commencing any work.
SITE EVACUATION INSTRUCTIONS:
The chance of site evacuation occurring during your visit is very remote. However, should an emergency
situation arise, which requires the evacuation of the site, evacuation alarms will sound across the entire
site.
Should this happen, please remain calm and obey the instructions of the staff member accompanying you.
Using the safest most direct route, you should proceed to the Emergency Assembly Point located at the
pedestrian gate entrance to the site from Administration building and carpark.
f for some reason it is not safe to assemble at the main Emergency Assembly Point, then the second
assembly point to be used is the main carpark.
Once at the assembly point, you should wait until the visitor's roll is called and you are noted as being
present.
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU WAIT UNTIL YOU ARE ACCOUNTED FOR; OTHERWISE YOU WILL BE
REPORTED TO THE EMERGENCY SERVICES AS A MISSING PERSON.
Our Staff are all trained to deal with on site emergencies and we request that you give them your full
co-operation, so that they may ensure your safety and the safety of others during an evacuation.
