- If you are in an earthquake-resistant building, stay near columns, under a desk or in areas marked as safe, always away from glass or items that might fall.
- If you are in an informal construction, try to leave immediately, during the exit, watch your surroundings to identify dangers during the evacuation.
- Never use elevators to evacuate.
- Do not go under the door frames, since it is not a safe place, the frame helps to dissipate the energy of the earthquake, so it can break and collapse.
- If you are in a wheelchair, stand next to a pillar or safe place, brake the chair and protect your head with your arms. Make sure that in your place of study and work, they have specific measures to support you in the evacuation.
