Cyclone Emergency General Advice

The cyclone season officially commences on 1 November and ceases on 30 April, but cyclonic events have been known to occur outside this period. Cyclones affect coastal areas up to at least 50 km inland from the sea.

Finance and Asset Services have prepared Cyclone Emergency General Advice (.pdf, 180KB) to remind staff and students of the processes to be followed.

The advice includes information on:

  • Housekeeping;
  • Action Required Upon Issuance of a Cyclone Watch;
  • Action Required Upon Issuance of a Cyclone Warning; and
  • Return to work.

Announcements
