Emphasizing the resiliency of facility operations Emergency Management plans support ongoing health & safety initiatives, and provide for a valuable return on investment in the reduction of operational down time.
Above and beyond public and employee safety - let’s use the language of the C Suite. Operational disruptions that impact your organization or facility from serving their customers are costly to the business and its reputation - seriously impacting the bottom line.
Comprehensive Emergency Management plans are a proven and well recognized method to provide a standardized approach to emergency preparedness, mitigation, response and operational recovery. A well thought out, hazard specific Emergency Management program provides support not only to facility first responders and arriving emergency services; they also provide strategic guidance for senior executives in how to approach crisis communications, and dynamic reputational risk management.
A successful Emergency Management program demands foresight and imagination from all levels of the organization, starting at the front line staff, all the way up to senior management, and include at times, contractors and service providers.
If you already have such a program, consultation with industry experts in the testing and maintenance of that program adds invaluable insight into current industry best practices and enhances the overall risk/harm reduction effort, which should be the main focus of the plan.
Consultants, with extensive and ongoing practitioner experience have a unique opportunity to learn from challenges and experiences, often garnered from around the world, from many different sectors. That experience is powerful and should be used on an ongoing basis to review and update your planning.
