disaster to businesses – assumption that they have resources

Page 3: Risk Analysis and the Security Survey  3rd edition

Emergency Response Planning

Introduction

Must have response capability: Required by Fed OSHA

Many States require response planning

Requirement under NFPA 1600 Civil liability

NFPA sec 1600 recognized as the National Preparedness Standard

Businesses held liable

Page 4: Risk Analysis and the Security Survey  3rd edition

Introduction

National Response Plan based on NIMS

National Incident Management System Incident command system Preparedness Communications and information

management Supporting technologies

NIMS provides a template to prevent or respond to threats and incidents

Page 5: Risk Analysis and the Security Survey  3rd edition

NIMS- Incident Command System

System used to manage response to an emergency

Primarily field response Relies on Management by Objectives

Senior responder sets objectives after subordinates communicate that they can be met

Small Span of Control Small incident 8 – 1 commander Complex incidents 5-1

Page 6: Risk Analysis and the Security Survey  3rd edition

Incident Command System

Command Incident Commander (IC) has overall

responsibility Establishes objectives and priorities Role filled by:

First to arrive then relieved by the senior commander

Establishes a command Post (CP) Management must delegate authority

to IC before an incident

Page 9: Risk Analysis and the Security Survey  3rd edition

Emergency Response Planning

Incident Command System

Duties of the IC include: Field management of the emergency Coordination with the emergency

operations center (EOC)or other IC’s Ultimate responsibility for safety Approval of all plans and resources Setting objectives and priorities Delegating authority as necessary Primary responder until others arrive

Page 10: Risk Analysis and the Security Survey  3rd edition

Emergency Response Planning

Incident Command System

IC may establish the following positions Public Information Officer (PIO)

PR to new media

Safety Officer Monitors safety Ensures compliance Safety of all personnel

Liaison Officer Assists the IC with coordination with other

agencies

Page 11: Risk Analysis and the Security Survey  3rd edition

Emergency Operations Center

Page 15: Risk Analysis and the Security Survey  3rd edition

Emergency Response Planning

Emergency Operations Center

The Emergency Operations Center (EOC) directs or coordinates the response of the business recovery

Team members and emergency managers meet to direct or co-ordinate a response Also called Command Center Alternate location Governmental is more resource oriented,

business more strategic

Page 16: Risk Analysis and the Security Survey  3rd edition

Emergency Response Planning

Emergency Operations Center

Primary Functions (Governmental EOC): Coordinate response to large or multiple

events Create or refine policy Allocate resources Collect and manage information about the

incident, responses, and decisions Release information to the public Maintain appropriate records

Page 17: Risk Analysis and the Security Survey  3rd edition

Emergency Response Planning

Emergency Operations Center

Design anticipates complexity of response

Must facilitate the flow of information internally and externally

Should be located in: Secure, structurally safe building Centrally located Easily accessible

EOC can be a large conference room for businesses

Credibility and evaluation of the threat based on the Risk Profile of the business Level of security Controversial business activity Recent events History of bombings and threats Intelligence

Activity of individuals or groups Contents of threat

Page 29: Risk Analysis and the Security Survey  3rd edition

Emergency Response Planning

Bomb Threats

Evacuation Controversial and difficult decision Many security managers will not evacuate

a facility unless a bomb is found

Loss of productivity Decreased morale Increased possibility of injury by evacuating employees in an unprotected area such as parking lots, hallways, building perimeter

Satisfies intent of the caller

Page 30: Risk Analysis and the Security Survey  3rd edition

Emergency Response Planning

Bomb Threats

Typical placement of devices If a device is found:

Evacuate safe distance or send employees home

Threats Credible, 30 minutes or less for detonation, delay search and evacuate

Credible, 30 minutes or more for detonation, search

Page 31: Risk Analysis and the Security Survey  3rd edition

Emergency Response Planning

Bomb Threats

Searches Almost always search Even if a threat is a hoax Who should search

Calling police or Security personnel Systematic, rapid, and thorough Anything out of place, breifcase, package next to the gas main, small pipe
