• 0 <br /> EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN & UNIVERSAL <br /> PRECAUTIONS <br /> At the time of an emergency,you must know what your responsibilities will be and when <br /> evacuation is necessary. In some cases,when the emergency is very grave,total and immediate <br /> evacuation is necessary. In other emergencies,designated individuals may address the emergency <br /> while others are evacuated. In some cases,only those in the immediate area of the emergency may <br /> be expected to respond,move to a safe area,or evacuate. You must know what is expected of you <br /> in any emergency to assure your safety and that of your fellow employee. <br /> Types of Emergencies: Medical,Fire,Chemical,Bomb Threat,Behavior Threat,Flood,and <br /> Earthquake. <br /> EVACUATION PROCEDURES AND RESPONSIBILITIES <br /> 1. You are to proceed to the nearest available and safe exit and leave the building as <br /> quickly as possible in the event fire or other emergency requires your evacuation. <br /> 2. You must be familiar with floor and workplace diagrams which clearly show the <br /> emergency escape routes. These floor plans and maps are posted in your work area. <br /> 3. Exterior refuge or safe areas are by department with specific destinations for roll <br /> call. See evacuation charts and/or other explanatory schematics. You are to move <br /> away from the building and avoid congregating anywhere that might impede <br /> emergency operations unless you are to man fire suppression equipment. <br /> 4. You are not permitted to re-enter an evacuated area before the authorized determination <br /> that such re-entry is safe. <br /> 5. Machine operators are to depress the closest equipment stop switch en route to their <br /> evacuation destination. Supervisory personnel will determine if the building(s)and <br /> machinery are to be completely deactivated during evacuation. Mobile equipment must <br /> be parked outside emergency response routes. <br /> HEAD COUNT PROCEDURES <br /> Designated employees will conduct head counts once evacuation has been completed. You should <br /> double-check rooms and other enclosed spaces that are on your exit route for anyone who could be <br /> trapped or unaware of the need to evacuate. <br /> RESCUE AND MEDICAL DUTY ASSIGNMENTS <br /> Normally,the responding fire department is responsible for performing any emergency rescue. <br /> Any first aid trained employee may provide assistance to anyone requiring it during an <br /> emergency situation. <br /> Professional emergency services responding in an emergency will assume <br /> command and direct all rescue and medical duty assignments upon their <br /> arrival. <br /> Document#0707717812 <br /> Revision Date:04/03/01—SECT12A.pdf <br />
