COMMUNITY

DISASTER PLAN
01 ASSIGN DUTY
AND PRIORITY.
Make it apparent that
management supports and
prioritizes the initiative. One
person should be in charge of
coordinating the task force or
work group that will assess
the risks and develop plans.
EXAMINE THE RISKS
AND CHALLENGES
02
THAT YOUR FACILITY
FACES.
Examine your position to see if there
are any problems that are likely to
arise. Almost all organizations may
confront certain obstacles, such as
fires, injuries, medical emergencies,
and violence.
DRAW UP A PLAN FOR
03 AVOIDING AND
PREVENTING PROBLEMS.
Consider methods to prevent or
contain risks once they've been
detected. As needed, create new
regulations or processes, such as
greater security or more attention in
enforcing safety rules.

PREPARE FOR WHAT


04 YOU'LL DO DURING AND
AFTER A CALAMITY.
Prepare for an evacuation,
set up a command post,
and get ready for ongoing
operations.

MAKE SURE YOU ARE


05 FAMILIAR WITH YOUR
METHODS.
Conduct practice drills to
ensure that all employees are
aware of their responsibilities.
Check to see if the drills reveal
any problems in your strategy.

MAINTAIN A
06 REGULAR REVIEW
SCHEDULE.
Annual assessments of your plan
should be part of your standard
operating procedures. People leave,
phone systems alter, and partitions
are constructed, among other
things.
