A Practical Checklist An On-Site Emergency
Frank Costa, President Nexgen Protection Services –
Essential items to include in every emergency checklist are:
- An evacuation plan with clearly marked exits and assembly points.
- Emergency contact numbers, including local emergency services and poison control.
- Location and proper use of fire extinguishers, automated external defibrillators (AEDs), and first-aid kits
- Procedures for shutting down utilities, such as gas and electricity, in an emergency.
- Food safety protocols in case of power outages or other events compromising food quality.
- Communication plan for informing employees and guests of the situation.
- Shelter-in-place procedures, if applicable.
Customizing the checklist is critical to ensure its effectiveness. Depending on your organization’s specific circumstances, you might need to add additional items.
