Safety begins with staying informed
Make sure you receive emergency alerts from CERN and the Host States.
To strengthen our collective preparedness, we encourage all members of the CERN community to make sure they can receive both CERN emergency notifications and official alerts issued by the Host States’ authorities.
Three simple actions can help you stay informed:
- Install the CERN Campus App and enable notifications. This is CERN’s primary channel for communicating emergency information and site-specific alerts to the CERN community.
- Install AlertSwiss and activate push notifications on your smartphone. Switzerland’s official alert platform provides real-time information on incidents and hazards that may affect your current location or selected regions.
- Familiarise yourself with how FR-Alert works when travelling or living in France. FR-Alert sends emergency notifications directly to mobile phones located in affected areas. No app download or registration is required, but familiarising yourself with the system will help you recognise and respond to alerts when they are issued.
