Implementation

Disaster_EmergencyPreparednessChecklistImplementation of the preparedness program includes identifying and assessing resources, writing plans, developing a system to manage incidents and training employees so they can execute plans.

  • Resource Management: Resources needed for responding to emergencies, continuing business operations and communicating during and after an incident should be identified and assessed.
  • Emergency Response Plan: Plans to protect people, property and the environment should be developed. Plans should include evacuation, sheltering in place and lockdown as well as plans for other types of threats identified during the risk assessment.
  • Crisis Communications Plan: A plan should be established to communicate with employees, customers, the news media and stakeholders.
  • Business Continuity Plan: A business continuity plan that includes recovery strategies to overcome the disruption of business should be developed.
  • Information Technology Plan: A plan to recover computer hardware, connectivity and electronic data to support critical business processes should be developed.
  • Employee Assistance & Support: The business preparedness plan should encourage employees and their families to develop family preparedness plans. Plans should also be developed to support the needs of employees following an incident.
  • Incident Management: An incident management system is needed to define responsibilities and coordinate activities before, during and following an incident.
  • Training: Persons with a defined role in the preparedness program should be trained to do their assigned tasks. All employees should be trained so they can take appropriate protective actions during an emergency.
