There’s an emergency. Could be a fire, a natural disaster, a terrorist attack.

The actions you take right now have an immediate, dramatic result. You may have to evacuate your staff, secure an incident site, deal with the EPA. Your actions potentially affect the health and safety of your staff, the legal liability of your company, and possibly the ongoing operations of the business.

Does your company have an emergency response plan in place? Does it deal with internal and external communications, legal issues, security, and other key factors vital to keeping your people and your business safe, or is it just an evacuation plan with local emergency numbers on it?



When was the last time you trained or drilled your emergency response plan? If your people don’t know how it works, or know it only as a binder on a shelf, you might as well not have it at all. You may have trained people when it was originally implemented, but how many of those people still work for you? The importance of having trained people ready to respond to incidents cannot be stressed enough. The survival of your business, as well as people’s lives and livelihood, may depend on it.
