CHAPTER 3

EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

1. Emergency procedures are steps to follow in time of trouble or danger. To determine
the priority of the tasks. Emergencies at work could include a heist in progress,

a fire, or a storm.

2. Try your best to assist in establishing procedures like those outlined in the following
paragraphs if your office does not already have any established ones.

EMERGENCY TELEPHONE NUMBERS • Post emergency phone numbers
beside each phone, including

company medical and security

personnel, local police, fire
department, and paramedics, and

include general emergency
numbers like 911.

• Emergency numbers can be

stored in a telephone's memory,
saving time by allowing users to

automatically dial the number with
a simple press of a few buttons.

FIRST AID PROCEDURES • First aid kits should be easily

accessible and regularly inspected.
• Employees should be trained in

CPR and other first aid courses,

and it's crucial to have a clear list of
those who have completed such

training.
• First aid posters can be placed

where they can easily be seen to

further assist employees.
