Overview

Every workplace in Australia requires a scheme of evacuation.  For small non-complex buildings, a simple generic Emergency Plan can be sufficient to provide direction for occupants to evacuate away from any danger – WH&S Regulations. 

As building become larger, more complex and house more occupants, site-specific Emergency Plans provide far greater information for occupants and the Warden Group to achieve a more efficient and effective outcome.

Australian Standards AS 3745 - 2010: Planning for emergencies in facilities and AS 4083 - 2010: Planning for emergencies – Health Care Facilities are the benchmark for constructing Emergency Plans and considered best practice. 

Managers and property owners are responsible for ensuring emergency management / response procedures are fully compliant with relevant Australian Standards.

Safe, Efficient and Effective ECO response to any emergency starts with the documentation.  Correct documentation can:

• Minimise business interruption
• Minimise injuries
• Lessen the effects of any emergency
• Reduce property damage
• Reduce the risk of serious injury or loss of life
