5. Warning and behaviour in the event of an incident
If you are informed about a damaging event in one of Chemoform AG’s operating areas or about a transport accident involving hazardous substances, please observe the following instructions. In doing so, you will be contributing to your personal protection and to effective help for all. This information is also available on the Chemoform AG website: www.chemoform.com

Warning

• Sirens: The siren signal warns you of acute danger from hazardous substances. Go immediately into closed buildings and do not stay outdoors. Switch on the radio with a regional station.
• Loudspeaker announcements: Loudspeaker announcements are made by the fire brigade and police to warn of hazardous substances. There is not always a danger. Therefore, pay close attention to the announcements and follow the instructions.
• Radio announcements: Inform the local radio stations (SWR 1, 3, 4) about hazardous situations. Make sure that your location is actually part of the endangered area. Keep a battery-operated radio on hand.

Protective measures

• Go to a building: You are safest from airborne pollutants in buildings with closed windows and doors. Turn off ventilation and air conditioning. Notify your immediate neighbours, as they may not have heard the warnings. Especially help impaired and elderly people, as well as children.
• Health impairments: In case of health impairments, contact your family doctor or the medical emergency service or call one of the information telephones.
• Evacuation: As long as there are pollutants in the air, evacuation is in most cases more dangerous than staying in closed buildings. Do not leave the building unless specifically told to evacuate by the fire brigade or police.
• Barriers: Observe road and area closures. They are there for your protection. Follow the instructions of the police and fire brigade.
Emergency call: If you are in an emergency situation, dial the emergency numbers 110 or 112.
• Internet: You can get information about the situation and necessary protective measures as quickly as possible on the cities’ websites.
• Leaflets: The distribution of information leaflets in affected areas serves to inform about the extent of damage after a damaging event and to give advice on how to behave.
• All-clear: As a rule, radio announcements are used to inform you about the end of the hazardous situation and the lifting of safety measures that have been taken. The all-clear can also be given by loudspeaker vehicles.

All-Clear Notification

You will generally be informed about the end of the hazardous situation and the lifting of safety measures through radio announcements. All-clear notifications may also be issued via loudspeaker vehicles. If you are informed about an incident in an operating area of Chemoform AG or a transportation accident involving hazardous materials, please follow the instructions below.
