Key takeaways

  • Clause 8.2 requires preparing for and responding to emergencies identified during hazard identification.
  • Organizations must establish a planned response, train workers, and test it periodically.
  • Performance must be evaluated and the planned response revised after drills and real events.
  • Information must be communicated to workers, contractors, visitors, emergency services, authorities, and the community.
  • Typical scenarios include fire, chemical spill, severe weather, medical emergency, and active threat.
  • Managers ensure drills actually happen and that lessons learned are folded back into procedures.
