The University of Santiago de Compostela designed a self-protection plan for the The Higher Polytechnic School of Engineering, taking into account the basic self-protection norm of centres, establishments and dependencies dedicated to activities that can give rise to emergency situations.
In 2007 a Self-Protection Plan was designed to prevent and control risks to people and property and to provide an appropriate response to possible emergency situations, guaranteeing the integration of these actions with the public civil protection system.
