Personal Watercraft Insurance, Have a written emergency preparedness plan
It is important to have a written emergency preparedness plan that is clear and easy to follow – and accessible to staff in the event of an emergency situation:
* Prepare a plan for each type of emergency you identify and don’t worry if some elements are repetitive. As with any policy and procedure, you want to be certain that your employees know as quickly as possible which actions to take and who to involve.
* A useful emergency plan will outline safety precautions, the initial response, the follow-up response that includes security and environmental, and any reporting procedures. It is also wise to make certain that there are contingency plans in place for long weekends, holidays, or times when others may have to step into the roles defined for others because emergencies don’t always have good timing.
* Take steps to ensure that any identified training needs for staff that are met and kept up-to-date. Have a process in place to make certain that new staff are trained, that training is kept current, and that the emergency roles of any departing staff are filled.
