Given recent natural events in New Zealand, we would like to prompt all Securo clients to give some thought to what procedures you have in place should an emergency strike. What we must all surely now realise is that the beautiful country we live in, can and will at times place some serious risks in our path.
While we are wanting to highlight natural disasters such as Earthquakes and Flooding, most of the items to consider will also be valid for Volcanic Eruption, Fire, Medical Emergencies etc.
We are not trying to recreate any processes you have implemented but just asking that you take a moment to consider whether you have given Emergency Procedures enough thought and whether you have tested your procedures recently to ensure they work and are adequate.
In short; do you have an Emergency Plan which has been communicated, understood, tested and reviewed?
Items to be considered:
Are all your emergency phone numbers displayed and understood. Has the list been reviewed recently
This is not meant to be an exhaustive list of items but something to get you thinking about what would happen should an emergency occur. If you refer to Section 7 of the new Securo H&S manual (V6) there is greater detail on what to consider.
Finally our thoughts and best wishes go to all those who have been effected by the natural disasters which have occurred in New Zealand recently.
