Description

Preparing for emergencies protects lives, property, and the future of your organization. It’s an important part of your workplace health and safety program. This introductory course provides guidance for developing and implementing a response plan for workplace emergencies (emergencies at - or affecting - your workplace, including off-site emergencies involving your organization’s staff). The course does not address community-wide emergencies (pandemic planning) not directly related to the workplace.

Emergency Response Planning features case studies, review quizzes, and "Ask a Question". A final examination is also included.

  • The Key Steps to Emergency Preparedness
  • Establishing the Planning Team
  • Identifying Potential Emergencies and Assessing Risk
  • Assessing Your Organization’s Emergency Response Capabilities
  • Building the Emergency Response Plan
  • Implementing the Plan: Preparing to Respond
  • Evaluating Effectiveness and Continuous Improvement

Upon completion of this course, the participant will be able to:

  • Describe the key steps in emergency planning
  • Identify and assess potential emergencies and their organization’s response capacity
  • Create an emergency response plan outline
  • Develop a process for continuous improvement of the plan

 

Average time to complete this course is approximately 1 hour.
