life, property or environment.
DEFINITION:

6. EMERGENCY
PLAN/S

7. • is the guiding tool that the incident command team
needs to best address disastrous situations.
• it should focus on four areas: prevention, mitigation,
response, and recovery. Obviously, the planning needs
to start long before any emergency actually happens.

11. • a future event or circumstance which is

DEFINITION:

12. QUESTION
What are some examples of an
event/circumstance which are
possible but cannot be
predicted with certainty?

13. SIMULATION

14. • imitation or enactment, as of something
anticipated or in testing.
DEFINITION:

15. ACTION PLAN
(Emergency Action
Plan)

16. • It establishes guidelines for all reasonably foreseeable
emergencies. Because each emergency situation
involves unique circumstances, the guidelines provide
general guidance only. Thoughtful actions based on
situation assessment are always required when
responding to an emergency. It is also important to
note that emergency guidelines do not necessarily
represent sequential series of steps.
WHAT IS IT?

17. • Contingency planning should always be undertaken
when there is a high risk or probability that a disaster
or emergency situation may occur. National Societies
and IFRC delegations should also plan when there is
evidence of recurring natural disasters (e.g., seasonal
events such as floods, hurricanes or cyclones, and
droughts).
WHEN SHOULD WE PLAN?

18. • Contingency plans are necessary at national and
regional levels (and sometimes at a global level), to
ensure effective coordination and response to large-
scale disasters. Plans should be established by all
National Societies and Federation delegations.
WHERE SHOULD WE PLAN?

19. • It should be led ideally by a focal person from the
Disaster Management Team (DMT), who is familiar with
disaster-response and contingency planning.
Alternatively a task force, committee or working group
comprised of DMT members and members from other
sectors can be formed.
WHO SHOULD CREATE E.A.P

20. Three primary goals:
1.Protection of lives
2.Protection of property
3.Restoration of operations
WHY MAKE E.A.P?

3. Where should we plan?
4. Who should create the E.A.P
5. Why make an E.A.P
6. How to make an E.A.P
EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN

22. 1. Perform a risk assessment
2. Document Contact Information
3. Assign roles and responsibilities
4. Take stock of current resources within your organization
5. Create an evacuation plan
6. Decide how communication will occur between
employees and the business
HOW TO MAKE E.A.P

23. 1. PERFORM A RISK ASSESSMENT
1. PERFORM A RISK ASSESSMENT
• The first step to creating an emergency response plan is to conduct a comprehensive
risk assessment to identify the types of events that may affect your organization.
2. DOCUMENT CONTACT INFORMATION
2. DOCUMENT CONTACT INFORMATION
• In the event of an emergency that could cause physical harm to your employees, the
first call you should make is to your local emergency responders. You should have the
numbers for emergency medical services, the fire department, and police department
readily available.

24. 3. ASSIGN ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
3. ASSIGN ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
• When an emergency occurs, employees will look to their leaders for reassurance and
guidance. These same leaders should be in charge of activating your emergency
response plan, answering important questions, and ordering an evacuation if
needed.
4. TAKE STOCK OF CURRENT RESOURCES
WITHIN YOUR ORGANIZATION
• Regularly inspect dusty office, fire extinguishers, alarm systems, or first aid kits.
4. TAKE STOCK OF CURRENT RESOURCES
WITHIN YOUR ORGANIZATION

25. 5. CREATE AN EVACUATION PLAN
5. CREATE AN EVACUATION PLAN
• In many cases, evacuating the building or premises is required during an emergency.
Clear signs should mark all the exit routes and fire escapes.
6. DECIDE HOW COMMUNICATION WILL
OCCUR BETWEEN EMPLOYEES AND THE
BUSINESS.
• When developing your plan, it is essential to consider how to notify employees of a
critical event, how the information will be delivered and received, and how effective
communication channels will be at reaching every employee in harm's way.
6. DECIDE HOW COMMUNICATION WILL
OCCUR BETWEEN EMPLOYEES AND THE
BUSINESS.

26. APPLICATION

27. • to put to use especially for some practical
purpose
• to bring into action
DEFINITION:

28. Each emergency/situation/circumstance requires
different approaches and different response
depending on what type or severity of the
emergency.
EARLIER...

30. If a fire is reported, pull the fire alarm, (if available and not
already activated) to warn occupants to evacuate. Then Dial 911
to alert Fire Department. Provide the following information:
• Business name and street
address
• Nature of fire
• Fire location (building and floor)
• Type of fire alarm (detector, pull
station, sprinkler waterflow)
• Location of fire alarm (building
and floor)
• Name of person reporting fire
• Telephone number for return
call

31. • Evacuate building along evacuation routes to primary assembly
areas outside.
• Redirect building occupants to stairs and exits away from the fire.
• Prohibit use of elevators.
• Evacuation team to account for all employees and visitors at the
Assembly Area.
EVACUATION PROCEDURES

33. An Active Shooter is an individual actively engaged in killing
or attempting to kill people in a confined and populated
area, typically through the use of firearms.
PROFILE OF AN ACTIVE SHOOTER

37. • Stay calm – do not alarm others.
• Notify your supervisor who will report the threat to law
enforcement by CALLING 911. If supervisor is not present, you make
the call.
• Fill out the Bomb Threat Card (See Attachment 2) to assist
responding agency. • Decision to evacuate the building will be made
by law enforcement personnel. • Take the Bomb Threat Card with
you if the building is evacuated.

38. • Remain calm and leave the message where it is found.
• Do not handle the document any more than necessary to preserve fingerprints
and other evidence.
• Do not alarm others.
• Notify your supervisor who will report the threat to law enforcement by
CALLING 911
. If supervisor is not present, you make the call.
• Do not give information to anyone except supervisor and law enforcement
personnel.

40. • When a warning is issued by sirens or other means, seek shelter inside. The
following are recommended locations for shelter:
SEVERE WEATHER AND NATURAL DISASTERS
Tornado

o Small interior rooms on the lowest floor and without windows,
o Hallways on the lowest floor away from doors and windows, and
o Rooms constructed with reinforced concrete, brick, or block with no windows.
o When a warning is issued by sirens or other means, seek shelter inside.
• Stay away from outside walls and windows.
• Use arms to protect head and neck.
• Remain sheltered until the tornado threat is announced to be over.

41. • Stay calm and await instructions from the Emergency Coordinator.
• Keep away from overhead fixtures, windows, filing cabinets, and electrical
power.
• Assist people with disabilities in finding a safe place.
• Evacuate as instructed by the Emergency Coordinator or the designated
official.
Earthquake

• Be ready to evacuate as directed by the Emergency Coordinator.
• Follow the recommended primary or secondary evacuation routes.
• Climb to high ground and stay there.
• Avoid walking or driving through flood water.
• If car stalls, abandon it immediately and climb to a higher ground.
Flood

42. • Stay calm and await instructions from the Emergency Coordinator.
• Stay indoors!
• If there is no heat:
Blizzard

o Close off unneeded rooms or areas.
o Stuff towels or rags in cracks under doors.
o Cover windows at night.
• Eat and drink. Food provides the body with energy and heat, and fluids
prevent dehydration.

44. In the event of extended power loss to a facility certain precautionary measures should
be taken depending on the geographical location and environment of the facility:
EXTENDED POWER LOSS
• Unnecessary electrical equipment and appliances should be turned off in the event that power
restoration would surge causing damage to electronics and effecting sensitive equipment.
• Facilities with freezing temperatures should turn off and drain the following lines in the event
of a long-term power loss.
o Fire sprinkler system
o Standpipes
o Potable water lines
o Toilets

45. EXTENDED POWER LOSS
• Equipment that contain fluids that may freeze due to long term exposure to freezing
temperatures should be moved to heated areas, drained of liquids, or provided with auxiliary
heat sources.
Upon Restoration of heat and power:
• Electronic equipment should be brought up to ambient temperatures before energizing to
prevent condensation from forming on circuitry.
• Fire and potable water piping should be checked for leaks from freeze damage after the heat
has been restored to the facility and water turned back on.
