Crisis Management
• Crisis Management is the process by which an organization deals with a major event that threatens it’s operation.
• It involves dealing with the threats:– Before– During, and– After
• Consideration should be given to both perception and reality.

Process of Crisis Management
Prevention – addresses what can be done to eliminate or reduce the risk to life, property, and efficacy.
Preparedness – focuses on planning for the worst-case scenario.
Response – is the steps taken during a crisis
Recovery – returning back to “normal”
![Page 5: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Establish a Committee
A “Safe n’ Secure” committee should be established to identify roles and responsibilities within the crisis management cycle.
“If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.”
![Page 6: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Crisis Planning should…
Begin at the top.
Not be done in a vacuum.
Open lines of communication.
Include police, firemen, and EMS.
Establish a common vocabulary.
Include all facilities.
Provide direction.

Timely Response
Every incident is not a crisis.
Don’t let it become one.
![Page 15: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Preparedness
Phase 2
![Page 16: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The following elements should be considered:• Site security
• Emergency action plan
• Business continuity plan
![Page 17: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Security Measures
Outside Recommendations: Clearly define property Clearly label facilities Maintain adequate lighting Limit blind spots Remove items to scale buildings Routinely inspect the premises
![Page 18: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Security Measures
Inside Recommendations: Limit the use of entrances Institute strict procedures for key control Secure access points of joint-use facilities Routinely inspect doors and windows Keep unoccupied areas locked Keep door latches in the locked position
![Page 19: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Security Measures
Considerations specifically for schools: Install a panic alarm in main office area Ensure all classrooms have 2-way communication Use caller ID Ensure radio frequency communication is possible Restrict access to all mechanical/ utility rooms Implement student release procedures
![Page 20: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Develop an
Emergency Action Plan
(EAP)
![Page 21: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
EAP
An EAP is a proactive plan to deal with potential threats, so that everyone knows what is expected of them when something happens. The major elements are:•Hazard assessment•Resource assessment•Responsibility assessment•Communication assessment•Policy and Procedures•Training and education•Record keeping
![Page 22: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Hazard Assessment
Identify hazards, assess risks. Determine:– the types of hazards (fire, flooding, tornado,
etc.).– the probability of their occurrence.– the extent of damage if hazards occur.
![Page 23: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Resource Assessment
Assess capabilities and resources.– What do we have?– What will we need?– Identify personnel and equipment.
Review existing plans if they exist.
![Page 24: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Responsibility Assessment
For each hazard or threat, determine who is responsible for necessary actions.
Keep in mind, one person can not be everywhere at the same time all the time.
Be detailed and precise when assigning responsibilities to personnel.
![Page 25: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Communication Assessment
Who do you need to communicate with?Administration
FamiliesAuthoritiesUtility providersMutual-aid providersMedia
What ways do you communicate?
Phones, Email, Radios, PA Systems
When is communication necessary?
![Page 26: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Develop Procedures
Using the information you’ve gathered through the multiple assessments, develop the procedures to be followed for each threat.
Include drawings with evacuation plans, utility shut-offs, safety equipment, etc.
![Page 27: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Write It!
Put the plan in writing. The easiest way to get everyone on the same page is to give them the same book.
![Page 28: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Implement & Practice the Plan
Give all employees a copy of the plan and train them on their responsibilities within the plan.
Invite local authorities to review your plan.
Practice the plan. Identify weaknesses.
![Page 29: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Types of Drills
• Evacuation
• Lock-down
• Table top scenarios
• Bus evacuation
![Page 30: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Update the Plan
No matter how specific your plan, it is likely that once practiced, changes will need to be made. Make the changes in the written plan and communicate the changes with everyone they affect.
![Page 31: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Develop a
Business Continuity Plan
(BCP)
![Page 32: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Business Continuity Plan (BCP)
Business continuity planning focuses on sustaining the delivery of services essential to the organization’s survival.
•Personnel
•Bank accounts
•Vendors
•Property
![Page 33: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
What should be included in a BCP?
![Page 34: Crisis Management Diocese of Pittsburgh John Krauland Loss Control/ Safety Coordinator.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d9f5503460f94a8aa2a/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
A BCP should identify:
• What services you deliver,
• To whom these services are delivered,
• Who will deliver the services, and
• Alternate locations the services will be offered
The more detailed you are now, the easier the recovery process will be later.
