1.0 Introduction

An emergency is an unplanned and unforeseen event which can occur at any time in a construction site.
To be prepared well in advance is the most important thing as far as an emergency is concerned. The first
step towards this is the preparation of a well thought Emergency Response Plan detailing as how to face
and tackle an emergency situation. It is the duty and responsibility of everyone in the project to be fully
familiar of this Emergency Plan. Remember in an emergency and disaster, the results are devastating to
both personnel and property of the facilities and business interruption. If an emergency occurs, the
established Emergency Response Plan must be strictly followed, never be panic, and proceed immediately
to the nearest Safe Assembly Point. In case of an emergency being declared this program shall be
implemented immediately.

2.0 Purpose

The purpose of the Emergency Response Plan is to provide a preplanned systematic approach in
managing emergencies and to define the assigned responsibilities, outline the course of action, and to
establish coordination in handling the emergency.

3.0 Scope

The Emergency Response Plan and Procedure contained within this Program are designed to assist all the
site employees working in JODP Makkah. These procedure and requirements shall be applied to all
employees of Nesma & Partners Co., its Sub-contractor(s) employees, Consultant and Client working in
the Project.

This plan covers the organization and systematic activities required during an emergency including
personal injury.

4.0 Types of Emergencies

4.1 Fire Incidents

4.2 Medical Emergencies
4.3 Construction Related Incidents

5.0 Definitions:

5.1 Emergency

An emergency is defined for the purpose of this plan as an event or condition, which has the potential of
causing bodily injury to employees and/or damage to the project facility and/or infrastructure.

5.2 Disaster

The most serious form of Emergency where the personnel, equipment and material at facility are
insufficient to bring the situation under control.
5.3 Emergency Assembly Points

A designated safe area where people are assembled in case of an emergency evacuation for head
counting and further instructions. Safe assembly points will be earmarked at various locations and sign
boards will be displayed in Arabic & English “EMERGENCY ASSEMBLY POINT”.

4/28
6.0 Organization
6.1 Emergency Control
The overall emergency response activities shall be under the control and direction of Contractor Nesma.

6.2 Emergency Response Team (ERT)

The Emergency Response Team is responsible to coordinate all activities in case of emergency. They have
to decide what activities shall be taken in to action. They gather all necessary information and inform all
concerned personnel from K&A, Hill & JODC.
The Incident Controller (IC) is the leader of the Emergency Coordination Team. The Emergency
Coordination Team consists of Nesma Construction Manager, Project HSE Manager, Area Managers, Area
Superintendents as well as Sub-Contractors Site Managers and HSE Supervisors.
The members of the Emergency Coordination Team are listed in appendix 11.1.

6.3 Traffic and Personnel Controlling

 The security on duty shall control all movements of personnel and vehicles within the Projects; to
ensure all access and evacuation routes are free from obstruction until the all clear announcement
instruction receives.
 Preventing unauthorized entry into hazardous or secured areas.
 To assign security personnel at entrance to direct the rescue vehicles, fire vehicles and
ambulances to the scene

6.4 IC (Incident Controller)

The Incident Controller (IC) controls and directs overall emergency response activities. The function of the
IC will be carried out by Nesma’s Site HSE Manager in close coordination with Site Construction Manager.
A hard hat (bright color) that clearly displays the letters "IC" (English and Arabic) will be permanently
available at the entrance to the Nesma Site office. In the event that an evacuation is necessary the IC will
wear the hard hat to signify his presence to his support team.

6.5 AR (Aid Receiver)

A designated responsible person instructed by the IC will meet the emergency service at the main gate
and direct them to the IC on arrival. The AR will be visible by wearing a hard hat which will have clear
markings "AR".

6.6 Head Count

A responsible person from each contractor will conduct a head count for personnel under their control.
The result will then be given to the IC.

6.7 Alarm
Emergency Alarms/Air Horns will be set up at all zones and will be sounded by personnel instructed to do
so by the IC.

6.8 Medical / First Aid Team

On Site there will be a medical center staffed with a qualified male nurse. An ambulance staffed with an
ambulance driver to transport injured persons to hospital as instructed by the IC. Medical Service and
ambulance will be ready at any time; medical team will be responsible for:
 To provide immediate care to injured persons, as well as the collecting and compiling of
health and medical-related disaster information.
 Coordinating offsite ambulance calling and pick-up, medical assistance.

7.0 Emergency

7.1 Emergency Alarm System on Construction Site:

Emergency alarms shall be sounded. Upon verification of the emergency, the safety department
representative or any other employee near to the siren should activate the siren immediately. Employees
should evacuate the work site immediately after hearing the siren.

Emergency alarms shall be tested on every month.

7.2 Actions to be taken in case of Alarm:

Upon declaration of an emergency or, on hearing the established site alarm or upon receipt of instruction
from Nesma, every Supervisor, crew supervisor, foreman, equipment operator, fire watch and Safety
Officers, shall ensure the following:

Personnel working at offices shall shut down all air conditioners, exhaust fans, electrical appliances, close

Employees working at work site shall stop all activities at once. All equipment, machines and power tools
are shut down and move to the nearest safe assembly area. All men are evacuated on foot in an orderly
manner to a pre-determined safe assembly area (running is prohibited except in life threatening
situations).

Do not use the elevators during emergency and shall not drive vehicles. The vehicles shall be parked at a
safe place, stop the engine and walk to the nearest safe assembly area.

All crew supervisors/foremen will wait for their employees in the assembly areas. Supervision must ensure
all employees working in confined space (if any) have been alerted and have proceeded to the assembly
area.

Crew supervisors/foremen will conduct a head count of their employees. If any employee is found to be
missing, the responsible supervisor/foreman shall inform the IC (Incident Controller) at the assembly area
immediately, identifying the employee(s), name and his/their last known location.

No attempt shall be made to locate missing employee(s) until a search is authorized by the Emergency
Response Team in collaboration with rescue team when so determined that a search and rescue party can
be reasonably protected during such operation.

No one resumes work unless an all clear announcement is given by IC and a new work permit (if
applicable) is applied for and approved (Note: All issued work permits, if any, are automatically cancelled
during actual emergencies and must be revalidated or replaced with new ones upon resuming work.).

Should the extent of the site disaster necessitate general evacuation from the area, if actual situation
warrants, workers from respective safe assembly areas shall proceed to the pre-designated Site
emergency exit gates (main gate), as given on emergency plot plan and move away from the emergency
scene in a quick and orderly manner.

Respective work areas shall have designated site Safety Officers to ensure the safety of the workers and
to implement the evacuation procedure to properly and promptly lead the work force as well in the event
of actual site emergencies. Assigning safety personnel in working areas shall not however, relieve the

7/28
responsible Foremen/Supervisors of their defined roles and duties within their respective areas of
supervision and in responsive handling of emergencies.

7.3 All Clear Announcements:

All personnel in the Assembly Area shall return to their work site after an ALL CLEAR ALARM is sounded or
an all clear announcement has been issued by the IC. Workers shall return to their work site in an orderly
manner. If work permits are issued this must be REVALIDATED.

8.0 Medical treatment and First Aid

A Medical Center for minor Injury and diseases will be provided on Site staffed with a male nurse.
All emergency fixtures shall be checked weekly, if they are ready for use. The person carry out the check
shall sign for approval on a table next to the fixtures.

8.1 Actions to be taken in case of Injury:

For any medical evacuation or personnel injury arises at the jobsite or any related situations, medical
center on Site and accredited hospitals shall be contacted.

8.2 Minor Injury

The injured personnel will get First Aid treatment from the clinic on Site. Any case shall be documented in
the First Aid Log Book. If the injured need further treatment, he will be transported to hospital with the
standby ambulance.

8.3 Serious Injury

Shift the injured person out of the hazard area or eliminate danger and give first aid. Advice a person to
inform IC and the medical center on Site and to call Hospital.

The injured personnel will be sent /transported to hospital or hospitals using the standby ambulance. If
ambulance is not available inform Hospital to send Ambulance and physician.

8.4 Serious Injury of several persons

Shift the injured persons out of the hazard area or eliminate danger and give first aid. Advice a person to
inform IC and the medical center on Site and call Hospitals and ask for ambulance and Physician.

9.0 Types of incidents and Actions:-

9.1 Fire or Explosion Procedures

The threat of fire and explosion exists at every site. Fire and explosion can be caused by accidental
circumstances, such as inadequate or damaged electrical wiring, or careless use of flammable material.
Fires are most devastating when they occur to sites with large concentrations of people. Heat, smoke,
may cause injury or loss of life to persons. Most fire related deaths are caused by smoke inhalation. It is
important to remember that the primary evacuation path may be towards the fire. In these cases an
alternate route of egress away from the fire should be used. Structural damage or collapse may occur if a
fire or explosion is strong enough. In crowded buildings, panic may result in further injuries if people
attempt to evacuate in a disorganized manner. Below is the guidance to control the fire situation.

8/28
9.2 Action to be taken in case of fire

In case of any fire on site, the person who detects fire first shall pass on this information to the Area
Supervisor/Safety Supervisor and also to the persons working in the area. Workers shall stop work, inform
personnel working at heights or confined space.

Small fires shall be extinguished, if no hazards occur during this activity. If the fire is beyond control and if
the effort of extinguishing fire is not successful, an internal emergency call shall be set up. The person
who receives the information shall immediately inform to the Incident Controller. (Safety Manager/Safety
Supervisor)

On receiving the emergency call by IC, he will call the Fire Fighting Team and will assess the situation,
inform the members of ERT and make the decision on the following activities.

IC and ERT shall decide if evacuation of the whole or part of Construction site is necessary. Accordingly
they shall give order to sound Emergency Alarm or inform Supervisor to partly evacuate their workers. In
any case of evacuation the actions given paragraph 7.3 "Actions to be taken in case of Alarm" shall be
brought into action.

IC and ERT shall decide if call for external help and rescue teams be needed for this emergency situation.
If yes, they request external help on the emergency telephone numbers. A member of the ERT shall meet
and instruct rescue teams like physician, ambulance and fire brigade at the main gate.

IC and ERT shall give further information to personnel. Further actions shall be brought into action in
agreement with rescue team.

If You Observe A Fire or Smolder

If you see or hear a fire, or smell smoke you might try to put out the fire by using the nearest
portable fire extinguisher if the fire is small and you are trained and confident to use the fire
extinguisher, use the P.A.S.S. technique to operate the fire extinguisher.

 PULL... Pull the pin. This will also break the tamper seal.
 AIM... Aim low, pointing the extinguisher nozzle (or its horn or hose) at the base of the
fire.
Note: Do not touch the plastic discharge horn on CO2 extinguishers, it gets very cold and
may damage skin.
 SQUEEZE... Squeeze the handle to release the extinguishing agent.
 SWEEP... Sweep from side to side at the base of the fire until it appears to be out.
Watch the area. If the fire re-ignites, repeat steps 2 - 4.

If The Fire Does Not Go Out or spreads

If the fire is clearly out of control, Immediately evacuate from the building and activate the
nearest fire alarm pull station to alert all others whose life is in danger for evacuation from the
building to the designated Emergency Assembly Point outside the building and report to the site
safety officer.

9/28
IC (Incident Controller) Responsibility

Upon receiving the report the site safety officer must inform the IC (Incident Controller) from
the situation.

The IC (Incident Controller) must advise to operate the Emergency Siren to evacuate the site
personnel and commercial building occupants to Emergency Assembly Point.

The IC (Incident Controller) must approach to fire scene with fire team to decide either the fire
could be controlled by the available resources or not. If not immediately dial the Civil Defense
(Fire Brigade) at 998.

Reporting Procedure

Dial 998 when operator answers, give the following information:

• Your name

• Location that you are calling from

• Building or area name.

• Give the precise nature of the fire, (i.e. car fire, chemical fire, electrical fire, outdoor grass fire,
building fire, fuel fire).

• Inform whether there are any injuries, and the number and extent of those injuries.

• Tell operator which entrance the fire truck should enter.

• DO NOT HANG UP until given permission to do so by the operator.

• A return contact phone number.

Responsibilities:

Safety Personnel at construction site and security personnel are responsible for:

• Redirect building occupants to stairs and exits away from the fire.

• Must Not Allow the personnel to Use Elevators within the building as a means of exit,
only use the stairways.

•To ensure everyone is out of the building and directed to the Assembly Point for head count.

• Supervisor must report any person missing to IC (Incident Controller) during head count at
Emergency Assembly Point.

• Must not allow any person to re-enter the building until advised to do so by the Civil Defense.

• Security Supervisor must assign security personnel at entrance to guide the fire trucks &
rescue vehicles to the fire area without any delay.

11/28
9.3 Collapse of structures:

Set up internal emergency call. Evaluate the situation. Check for personnel entangled under the debris. If
necessary call for the help of external agencies such as Civil Defense, Fire Service etc.

If there is heavy disaster the actions given paragraph 7.1 shall be brought into action.

If there are injured personnel, action as per clauses 8.3 & 8.4 shall come in to force.

9.4 Floods (Heavy Rain)

Floods are the most common and widespread of all natural hazards. Floods and flash floods usually occur
during or after a period of heavy precipitation when the natural drainage system may become overloaded.
Flash floods are particularly deadly because they occur swiftly and without warning. Seconds may make
the difference between life and death. Swiftly moving water can damage or destroy buildings and
structures, and cause injuries and drowning. Slowly developing floods can interrupt power, damage
buildings, and make roads impassable. Impassable roads and loss of power may disrupt or halt essential
operations at the site until flood waters recede and utilities are restored. If the site becomes inundated,
significant damage to equipment, supplies, and vital records may occur

if proper measures are not taken. Structural damage is possible from the pressure of the water and from
debris floating in the current. Flood waters only one foot deep can sweep you off of your feet.If the site is
in or near an area that is susceptible to flash flooding, be aware of the possible danger and take adequate
precautions to protect persons. People may be stranded at the site if a precautionary evacuation is not
undertaken.

Types of Floods

Flood forecasts mean rainfall heavy enough to cause rivers to overflow their banks.

Flood warnings or forecasts of impending floods describe the affected river, lake or tidewater, the severity
of flooding (minor, moderate or major) and when and where the flooding will begin.

Flash flood watches mean heavy rains (that may cause sudden flash flooding) are occurring or
expected to occur.

Flash flood warnings mean flash flooding is occurring or imminent along certain streams and
designated areas. Move to higher ground immediately.

Things to do Before a Flood

1. Be familiar with the above terms.

2. Move furniture and essential items to higher elevation if time permits.
3. Open basement windows to equalize water pressure on foundations and walls.
4. Keep a stock of food that requires no cooking or refrigeration. Store
drinking water in clean, closed containers.
5. Keep a portable flashlight in working order with an extra stock of
batteries.
6. Be sure you have enough fuel in your vehicle and follow evacuation
12/28
 routes.
5. Have first-aid supplies and any medicines you may need.
6. be familiar with evacuation routes in your area. (See Response
Plan)

Things to do During a Heavy Rain

1. Construction Site Personnel: In heavy rains, be aware of flash floods and all personnel working
at work site must stop the work and equipment and move to the buses for camp, if heavy rain
starts suddenly and not possible to move the buses, all workers has to move to the higher floor
where concrete pouring work is completed.
2. Personnel In Commercial: All personnel in commercial floors has to evacuate and move to their
residence and security personnel must ensure that everyone is evacuated, if not possible due to
sudden high rain, move to the top floors.
3. Before moving to the top floors and if you have time.
 Secure belongings, move important files, furniture, etc. to an upper floor or stack.
 Lock the doors before leaving.
 Turn off utilities at main switches.
 Disconnect electrical appliances. DO NOT TOUCH any electrical equipment if you are wet or are
standing in water.
 Be sure you have enough fuel in your vehicle and follow evacuation routes.
 Tell others where you are going.

5. If you must travel during heavy rain or floods, do not drive into flooded areas. If flood waters rise
around your car, abandon it and get to higher ground. Watch for broken sewers or water mains, loose
or downed electric wires and falling or fallen objects. Stay away from drainage channels.
6. Under no circumstances should you try to swim or dive into the water. The currents are deadly!
Never try to cross a flowing stream on foot.

What to do After a Flood

1. Do not visit disaster areas.

2. Do not enter in the building if flood waters are over the first floor.
3. Use battery-powered lanterns or flashlights to examine buildings or offices.
4. If doors are stuck, try entering through a window.
5. Do not eat food or drink water if that has come into contact with flood water.
6. Do not use an open flame as a light source because of possibility of escaping gas.
7. Do not handle electrical equipment that has been wet until it has been checked by an expert
8. Report broken utility lines to authorities.
9. Watch out for poisonous snakes.

Important

Do not drive in flooded areas or attempt to cross moving water in an automobile. Moving water
can easily capsize a car or truck and drown the victim. Avoid creeks, low water crossings, ditches,
and flooded roads during heavy rains.

13/28
 9.5 Heavy Wind

Hurricane – General Information and Categories

A hurricane is storm with rotary circulation that originates in a topical depression over the sea with wind
in access of 74 miles per hour. These winds blow in a counterclockwise spiral around a relatively calm
center known as the eye of the hurricane. Around the rim of the eye, winds may gust to more than 200
miles per hour. High winds can topple trees, outdoor equipment, and electrical lines.

Hurricane Categories and Affect

A. Category One – Winds of 74 to 95 mph, storm surge of 4 to 5 feet above normal tide. Damage to
shrubbery, trees, poorly constructed signs, and unanchored mobile homes. Low lying coastal roads
inundated.
B. Category Two – Winds of 96 to 110 mph, storm surge of 9 to 12 feet above normal tide. Some
damage to roofing materials of buildings; some wind and door damage. Major damage to exposed mobile
homes. Coastal roads and low lying escape routes made impassable by rising water 2 to 4 hours before
arrival of hurricane.
C. Category Three – Winds of 111 to 130 mph, storm surge 9 to 12 feet above normal tide. Large trees
blown down. Some damage to roofing materials of buildings; some window and door damage. Some
structural damage to small buildings. Mobile homes destroyed. Serious flooding at the coast; many small
structures destroyed; large structures damaged by waves and debris.
D. Category Four – Winds of 131 to 155 mph, storm surge 13 to 18 feet above normal tide. Shrubs and
trees blown down, all signs down. Extensive damage to roofing materials, windows, and doors. Complete
failure of roofs of many small residences. Complete destruction of mobile homes. Flat terrain 10 feet or
less above sea level flooded inland as far as six miles. Major damage to lower floors of structures near
shore.
E. Category Five – Winds greater than 155 mph, storm surge greater than 18 feet above normal tide.
Shrubs and trees blown down; considerable damage to roofs of buildings. Very severe and extensive
damage to windows and doors. Complete failure of roofs on many residences and industrial buildings.
Some complete building failures. Complete destruction of mobile homes. Massive evacuation of residential
areas on low ground within 5 to 10 miles of shore possibly required.
The damage expected from various categories of storms outlined above is typical; actual damage caused
by a storm will vary depending on building code compliance, condition of structures, zoning restrictions,
and a number of other factors.
A “Hurricane Watch” means a hurricane has become a threat to coastal areas. Residents and
businesses in those areas should monitor the situation and be prepared to take precautionary action
promptly if a hurricane warning is issued.
A “Hurricane Warning” indicates that hurricane force winds, dangerously high water, and rough seas
are expected in a specific coastal area within 24 hours and precautionary actions should begin
immediately.
A hurricane’s intensity, speed, and direction can change rapidly, so the threat to particular areas of the
coast may also change quickly.

Evacuation for Shelter Purpose

Personnel working in podium will use podium Floor No.1 & 2 as a shelter during hurricanes, tornadoes, or
other high wind events, in case of heavy rain and flood they have to utilize podium Floor No. 3 & 4 as a
shelter.
14/28
Personnel working at construction site will use the floors where walls are constructed, door and windows
are fixed in the rooms.
Site management and office staff will utilize site officers as shelter during hurricanes, tornadoes, or other
high wind events.

Things to Do Before a Hurricane

1. Be familiar with the above terms.

2. Stop all cranes & work at height, secure loose objects that could cause damage outside.
3. Secure all columns/tower scaffolds by guy wire from falling on
4. Down all mobile and crawl crane boom and park all equipment away from the building.
5. Keep a stock of food that requires no cooking or refrigeration.
6. Store drinking water in clean, closed containers.
7. Keep a portable, battery-operated radio and flashlight in working order with an extra stock of
batteries.
8. Have first aid supplies and any medicines you may need.
9. Be prepared to evacuate and be familiar with evacuation routes
10. Make an inventory of all valuables for insurance purposes. Take pictures or record on DVD all
personal property.
11. Park vehicles in a garage if possible otherwise keep them clear of buildings, walls, fences and
trees.

Things to do During a Hurricane Threat

1. Listen to radio or TV for information and instructions.

2. Cover windows with boards, storm shutters or heavy tape. Wedge sliding glass doors to prevent
their lifting from their tracks.
3. Secure outdoor objects or bring them indoors.
4. Fuel your car. Service stations may be closed or unable to pump gas.
5. Ready a "disaster supplies kit" including first-aid items, special medications, important papers,
blankets, cooking equipment and a portable radio with extra batteries.
6. Secure several days’ supply of water, food and clothing. Water is especially important. Fill sinks
and bathtubs with clean water.

Be prepared to evacuate if:

o Local authorities announce an evacuation.

When evacuating:
o Travel with care.
o Leave early enough to avoid being marooned by flooding, fallen trees, etc.
o Notify relatives or friends of your destination.

If not evacuating:
o Stay indoors away from windows and on the downwind side.
o Don't be fooled by a lull. It could be the eye of the storm passing over.
o Avoid using the phone except for emergencies.
o Listen to the radio or TV for information.
15/28
Things to Do After a Hurricane
1. Remain in your shelter until informed by authorities that it is safe to leave.
2. Listen to the radio or TV for advice and instructions.
3. Stay away from disaster areas - sightseers is not welcome.
4. Drive only when necessary and be especially careful.
5. Avoid loose or dangling power wires and report them immediately to concern authority.
6. Report broken gas, sewer or water lines.
7. Ensure any repair work is carried out safely
8. Prevent fires. Water pressure may be low.
9. Check refrigerated food for spoilage.
10. Stay away from streams until flooding has subsided.
11. Avoid drinking domestic water until notification that it is safe.
12. If an electrical line falls across your car, do not move the car or try to get out. Stay where you
are until help arrives.

11.6 Bomb Threats

Many bomb threats turn out to be a prank; they must be taken seriously to ensure the safety of the
personnel working at construction Site and in commercials.

A bomb threat could be written, e-mailed, communicated verbally or received by phone. Most of the bomb
threats are made by telephone to places of employment. Generally, a bomb threat call is made for one of
two reasons:
1. The caller has definite knowledge about the explosive device and wants to minimize personal
injury.
2. The caller wants to disrupt normal activities by creating anxiety and panic.

Upon Receiving Bomb Threat Call

When you are prepared for such a call, you can respond in a calm manner, ask for specific information
about the bomb and listen for some identifying characteristics of the caller. While on the telephone, you
may be able to initiate a trace of the telephone number of the caller, providing vital information about the
caller's whereabouts.

Person Receiving the Bomb Threat Telephone Call Has to Ask the Questions

1. Remain calm. Be courteous and don’t interrupt the caller.

2. Note whether the caller is male or female, an adult or a child.
3. Keep the caller on the phone as long as possible. Don’t hang up until the caller does. The phone
Company may be able to trace the call if you stay on the line long enough.
4. If the caller ID system displays the caller phone number, write it down.
