What should a person do after activating a fire alarm pull station outside of an office building?

The correct action after activating a fire alarm pull station is to report to the Fire Command Station immediately afterwards. This is crucial because informing the personnel at the Fire Command Station allows them to confirm the alarm and initiate the appropriate emergency response procedures. It also ensures that emergency responders are aware of the location and potential severity of the situation.

Waiting at the alarm station until the firefighting units arrive is not advisable because it does not contribute to timely communication regarding the emergency. Additionally, remaining near the alarm station can hinder evacuation efforts or delay necessary actions that can help mitigate the situation.

Notifying an immediate supervisor could be part of the response strategy but should generally follow reporting to the Fire Command Station to ensure that the right steps are taken promptly. Similarly, doing nothing after pulling the alarm is inappropriate, as the activation of the fire alarm should always be accompanied by actions that assist in ensuring safety and facilitating the emergency response.
