WORKPLACE EMERGENCIES

Introduction

This Emergency Action Plan (EAP) establishes guidelines for all reasonably
foreseeable workplace emergencies. Because each emergency situation involves
unique circumstances, the guidelines provide general guidance only. Thoughtful
actions based on situation assessment are always required when responding to an
emergency. It is also important to note that emergency guidelines do not necessarily
represent sequential series of steps.

Special Note: Safety and health are the overriding priorities in all emergency situations.
Think before you act and… if you see something, say something!

General Information (Refer to “EAP Position and Personnel Roster”)

Emergencies can be identified as Medical, Fire, Severe Weather, Bomb Threats,


Chemical Spills, Terrorist Attacks, Criminal Acts, Extended Power Loss, etc. Personnel
should identify these emergencies and report them to the Emergency Coordinator and
CALL 1111 for Nestle Emergency #.

Assembly Area Near Tower 1

Alerting Personnel

The following apply during fires and other workplace emergencies requiring evacuation:

 The fire alarm will be activated and personnel will calmly evacuate using designated
escape routes giving vocal alarms of “FIRE”, etc.
 Personnel will look into rooms as they leave the suite and notify personnel to exit; do
not delay your evacuation for this purpose.
 Personnel will assemble and remain in the evacuation Assembly Area. Leaving the
group or failing to report to the evacuation Assembly Area can cause unnecessary
effort locating personnel believed to be missing.
 Immediately notify your Floor Captain or the Emergency Coordinator of missing or
unaccounted for personnel.
 Stay alert and listen for instructions.
 Await guidance to disperse, return to the building or take additional measures.
 In the event of a Medical or other emergency that does NOT require evacuation,
