Emergency Plans

Emergency incidents can occur in a commercial or industrial environment at any time. With proper planning the risks to buildings and occupants can be reduced, and some risks can even be eliminated.

The Emergency Management Planning process identifies risks and develops procedures to ensure the safety of people during an emergency.

CFA publishes a template manual based on two Australian Standards:

Emergency Control Organisations and Procedures for Buildings AS3745-2002
Planning for Emergencies – Healthcare Facilities AS4083-1997

This manual assists property owners and business proprietors to develop comprehensive emergency management plans for commercial and industrial buildings. It will also provide a template for those that are preparing emergency management plans for caravan parks.

Hard copies of the Emergency Management Planning Guidelines are available for purchase from CFA HQ or Regional Headquarters at a cost of $110 (GST inc). Download the Emergency Management Manual Order Form - pdf 27k

Electronic copies of the templates are also provided here for people that may need to start preparing emergency management plans or are looking to provide additional information within their existing emergency management plans.
