Dear all,

Last week we participated in our annual fire evacuation drill (brandövning), led by our “fire protection director” Peter Carlsson. The evacuation drill was successful, the evacuation was performed well and quickly. We identified a number of smaller issues (and one larger) that we need to improve. During the evacuation, in the future, we meet further away from MMK, by the signs that say “Återsamlingsplats”. The evacuation drill is an annual exercise to test systems: alarm systems, connectivity with other systems, our own evacuation leaders etc.

Last week we also had a CPR training for seven of us, a first aid training to be prepared for medical emergencies in the building. The seven of us are now authorized to use the defibrillators that we have in our buildings, and, if we have a medical emergency, we’ll be contacted on cellphones and ready to use the equipment. The list of contact persons will be published next to the defibrillators.

The highlight of last week was of course the MMK Fall Party (Kräftskiva). Luckily there were no “surströmming” (rotten fish). While some appreciated the crayfish more than others, the weather was perfect, a lot of people showed up and the singing was beautiful.

Best,

Martin
