Emergency
Injury
Report any accident at the workplace to your supervisor immediately and provide first aid using the first aid kit (at the MUNI ECON reception). In case of a serious accident, call the emergency service at 155.
Fire
If you notice there is a fire, take the necessary measures to rescue the persons at risk and, if possible, extinguish the fire or prevent it from spreading. For first action there are portable fire extinguishers and wall-mounted hydrants located in the corridors. In the event of a fire, proceed with caution and report any fire to your supervisor and notify the fire reporting station (ECON MUNI reception).
The principles of fire protection are regulated at MU by Rector's Directive No. 4/2005 (only in Czech).
