About This Plan Template

This emergency response plan (ERP) template is one in a series of templates designed to provide comprehensive, practical, and structured guidance to those responsible for developing an

emergency response plan and other related business continuity plan documents. This ERP template contains a recommended structure, outline, and contents for a typical emergency response plan document consistent with external authorities and responders and may be

customized and tailored to suite your organization’s specific emergency response requirements. It is recommended that a Document Manager be assigned the responsibility of overseeing

updates and revisions to this document. Please refer to the section “Version Change Control” for more information on how to manage and distribute changes to this document.

Business Continuity Plan Documents & Crisis Response Phase

For the purpose of this template, the crisis response phase has been defined as the overall phase during which a crisis situation or disaster occurs. During the crisis response phase, several sub-phases occur, namely, an emergency response phase, management response phase, and a business area response phase.

During each phase one of several business continuity plan documents are utilized. The diagram below depicts the crisis response sub-phases and plan documents associated with each sub-phase:

(7)

This business continuity plan template follows a phased approach as a response to a disaster or disruptive event. The [Company XX] business continuity plan consists of several plan

documents as follows:

1. Business continuity plan (referenced) 2. Emergency response plan (this plan) 3. Site crisis management plan (referenced) 4. Business area recovery plan(s) (referenced)

(8)

Introduction

This [Company XX] Emergency Response Plan contains predetermined guidelines and procedures to ensure the safety, health, and welfare of staff, and an immediate response to an emergency or disaster situation. An emergency is any disruptive or harmful event that endangers people, environment, or an organization’s property and assets. Emergencies can be small, as in a fire contained by employees using fire fighting equipment, or large, as in a disaster resulting from an earthquake or a tornado. Example emergency events are:

• explosion

• overheated equipment

• airplane crash

• chemical spill in particular area

• fire

• pandemic

• loss of power

• damage to building

• loss of power

• damage from chemical spill

Example sources of emergency or disaster events are:

• smoking in building

• earthquake

• disaster in neighboring company facility

• storm

• disgruntled employee

• power generator failure

An emergency response plan deals with the immediate physical effects of a disaster and is used as an initial response. The emergency response plan is closely associated with the business continuity plan. The purpose of the business continuity plan is to ensure a prompt and efficient recovery of essential business operations.

Emergency Response Policy

Purpose

(9)

Scope

This emergency response policy applies to all [Company XX] business facilities and locations. Each [Company XX] site shall define, approve, and implement an emergency response plan which includes essential activities, procedures, and tasks necessary to ensure an effective response.

Executive Sponsor

The executive sponsor approves the budget and resources required, and delegates authority to the emergency response team and team leader to manage, coordinate, and oversee the emergency response plan design, development, implementation, maintenance, and assessment.

Review and Compliance

The corporate business continuity program policy has established an annual review and assessment for this policy and for the emergency response plan.

Rules regulations

[Company XX - rules and regulations that are specific to you organization here]

Staff responsible

[Company XX] business continuity and recovery teams have the responsibility to know this policy and understand and adhere to the standards and procedures established in this policy. It is the responsibility of all staff to be aware of their departments and/or business unit’s business continuity plan and its associated documents.

Violations

Any employee and/or contractor or service provider found to have violated this policy may be subject to legal actions such as termination.

Emergency Response Plan

Purpose

(10)

1. Provide a managed, coordinated, and effective response to the immediate physical effects of an emergency or crisis situation.

2. Reduce the likelihood that the business continuity plans are invoked

Objectives

The primary objective of the emergency response plan is to protect life by: 1. preventing injury;

2. providing shelter; and 3. evacuating the premises. Additional objectives are to:

1. mitigate the threat of an emergency or disaster situation;

2. control and terminate the emergency or incident as quickly as possible; 3. prevent a minor incident from becoming a major disaster;

4. familiarize all members and staff with procedures; 5. protect environment;

6. protect company assets;

7. determine unsafe hazardous conditions and contaminations; and 8. minimize impact to business.

Assumptions

This plan has been developed with the following assumptions:

• All threats will be treated as genuine, until the incident investigation and assessment

proves otherwise;

• The Emergency Response Team will be comprised of sufficient number of staff to ensure

a satisfactory turnout in the event of an emergency.

Scope

(11)

Business Continuity Plan Documents & Crisis

Response Phase

For the purpose of this template, the crisis response phase has been defined as the overall phase during which a crisis situation or disaster occurs. During the crisis response phase, several sub-phases occur, namely, an emergency response phase, management response phase, and a business area response phase.

During each phase one of several business continuity plan documents are utilized. The diagram below depicts the crisis response sub-phases and plan documents associated with each sub-phase:

Each crisis response sub-phase is described below: 1. Emergency Response Phase

This phase is the first phase in managing a crisis. It comprises of the initial few hours after an actual disaster, or after the threat of a disaster is first identified. The emergency

response plan (ERP) is the primary document used during this phase.

In this phase, emergency response plan procedures, tasks, and forms are used; the business continuity coordinator and other members of the crisis management team are alerted; and evacuation occurs and/or the incident is contained.

(12)

2. Management Response Phase

In this phase, the crisis management team manages and coordinates all site recovery activities. This phase begins after the initial response is received by the crisis

management team. The site crisis management plan (SCMP) is the main document used during this phase.

3. Business Area Response Phase

In this phase, business area teams recover and resume business operations. Depending on how large you organization is, you may opt to develop Business area recovery plans and

business unit recovery plans or just business unit recovery plans. Business area recovery

plans may be used to invoke business unit plans. Note that this breakdown allows for a more modular structure of activities and is especially useful if your organization is large has many business department and units.

Business Continuity Plan Documents

Below is a list of plan documents and an explanation of each:

• Site Emergency Response Plan

o This plan. The ERP is used to respond to an emergency or incident. The primary plan objectives are to:

 Protect life

 Provide shelter

 Evacuate premises

 Mitigate threat and control extent of damage

• Site Crisis Management Plan

o Plan used to manage and coordinate all site recovery activities including activities such as:

 Supervising recovery effort

 Declaring a disaster

 Invoking other plans

 Monitoring recovery, resumption, and normalization activities

• Business Area/Department/Unit Recovery Plan

o Plan used to manage and recover business operations within each business area/department/unit.

(13)

Emergency Response Plan High-level Process Flow

During the emergency response phase and site crisis management phase, the Crisis Management Center will be opened and CMT team members will gather to determine if a disaster is to be declared. The following diagram illustrates the relationship between the ERP, SCMP, and the Business Area Recovery Plans:

The following process flow describes example high-level steps and actions conducted during the ERP phase. Activities in the plan start whenever there is a threat of disaster or an actual

(14)

(15)

ERP Sub-phases

The ERP phase is divided into the following sub-phases: 1. Plan Activation Phase

2. Incident Logging & Reporting Phase 3. Incident Evacuation Phase

4. Incident Assessment and Escalation Phase 5. Incident Mitigation and Prevention

6. Incident Monitoring Phase

Plan Activation Phase

The emergency response plan may be activated as a response to any event that threatens the safety of employees, corporate assets, or environment. Activation of the emergency response plan occurs as a result of receiving notification of an emergency. Depending on the nature of the incident and the industry that your company operates in, invocation of the plan may be from internal sources such as an employee who notices a problem, or from an external source such as the World Health Organization (WHO), National Guard, or American Red Cross.

There are numerous events that can trigger the activation of the emergency response plan. Some examples of these events are:

1. a fire is detected on the main floor elevator; 2. a gas leak is detected in the basement floor; 3. a water leak occurs in the server room;

4. a goods production machine in the manufacturing facility is overheating; or 5. a hostage situation is in progress by a previous company employee.

The level of response will vary with each incident and there may be limited action, or a full response involving all team members and authorities.

The emergency response plan is designed to be executed prior to the execution of other business continuity plan documents; however, other plans such as the site management plan may be executed in parallel.

Incident Logging & Reporting Phase

When possible, the Emergency Incident Reporting Procedure shall be used to log an emergency incident. The Initial Incident Report shall be completed with the following information:

• Contact information – name, phone, date, and time;

• Description of emergency – problem description, injuries, property damage;

• Time of emergency event;

(16)

• Who was notified; and

• What actions have been taken

This form shall be delivered to the ERT Leader, Senior Management member, or other ERT Member.

Incident Evacuation Phase

If the emergency situation is life threatening, evacuate premises immediately by following procedures for:

• Fire Evacuation

• Bomb Threat

• Chemical Spill

• [Other Procedures for Company XX]

The ERT Leader shall ensure safety of personnel by ensuring appropriate evacuation procedure is followed.

Incident Assessment and Escalation Phase

The ERT Leader or other senior Management members are responsible for assessing the incident. The purpose of this assessment is to:

• Determine the urgency of the current emergency situation;

• Determine requirement for opening the Crisis Management Center;

• Determine requirement to activate other plans such as the business continuity plan;

The actual assessment assigns an incident severity level to the current situation such as low, medium, and high. Based on this assessment, other actions such as escalation may take place. The severity level may be based on extend of injury, possibility of containment, or other scenarios specific to your organization. Example severity levels are described below:

• Low – incidents considered as low priority do not involve injury; can be contained easily,

and not likely to progress. In this severity level, the incident should be closely monitored to ensure it does not progress.

(17)

The incident is escalated based on results of the Incident Assessment Report which assigns an Incident Severity Level to the incident. The escalation serves the following purpose:

• Ensures that the Incident Assessment Report is acted upon;

• Ensures proper authorities are notified such as ambulance or medical aiders;

• Action is taken to contain or minimize incident;

• Additional emergency response members are called; and

• Additional plans are invoked such as the business continuity plan.

Incident Mitigation Phase

In the event an emergency can be prevented from becoming a disaster, this phase attempts to take actions to contain or minimize incident such as:

o Calling ambulance;

o Calling medical first aid; and/or o Call salvage and repair experts

Incident Prevention Phase

In the event an emergency can not be prevented from becoming a disaster, this phase attempts to prevent further damage by:

o Administer first aid;

o Move items to second floor; o Prevent water damage; and/or o Ensure evacuation.

Incident Monitoring Phase

(18)
