Safety and emergency situations

This page contains important information and short instructional videos on what to do in the event of an accident. In the event of an immediate threat to life, property or the environment – always call 112.

If an accident has occurred your priorities are as follows:

Always put personal safety first when an accident has occurred.

Save people in immediate danger.
Warn others.
Raise the alarm. Call 112.
Extinguish fires or deal with emissions of substances, if it is possible to do so without taking unreasonable risks. In the event of a chemical spill, cordon off the affected area/corridor/lab.
Evacuate the premises, close the doors, and direct people to the building’s assembly point, which is always outdoors.
Inform Chalmers on the emergency number - 031 772 4488.
If you require emergency security assistance, please call Chalmersvakten (on-call security guard) on 031-772 44 99.

Defibrillators on campus

There are currently 64 defibrillators located across the Chalmers campus to enable rapid life-saving assistance in the event of sudden cardiac arrest. The aim is for you to be able to reach a defibrillator and begin resuscitation within three minutes of a cardiac arrest occurring.

The defibrillators are located, signed and maintained so that they are easy to find and use when every minute counts. All defibrillators can be located via Campus Maps, and the freely accessible units are registered in the Swedish national defibrillator registry.

Additional defibrillators at events

For larger events or special requirements, additional defibrillators can be booked. You can book these via the Classroom Booking by sending an email to: salsbokningen@chalmers.se, or by contacting Kjell Saebbö.
