Contact your safety committee .
They must come up with a detail report on how to avoid any future incidents .

Or an acronym. I heard a good one today from a buddy. It was called NOD navigate obey deliver.

I wonder if they actually evacuated the building?
We've had at least one fire in the past and most of us didn't find out about it until after the shift was over.
And, just recently, we lost all power for ~2 hours on preload. Management's solution was to turn the interior dome(?) lights on the package cars and keep working. I'm glad I missed that day.

Did the employees not touch, leave area, notify supervisor?

A good steward always can put out a small fire.
