Product Overview
This professionally developed Emergency Management Plan is a comprehensive, ready-to-use WHS document designed specifically for Australian workplaces. It provides clear, practical procedures to prepare for, respond to and recover from a wide range of emergencies, including fire, medical incidents, hazardous chemical spills, security threats and natural disasters. Built around Australian work health and safety legislation and AS 3745 Planning for emergencies in facilities, it helps you demonstrate due diligence and strengthen your organisation's safety culture.
Instead of starting from scratch, this template gives you a robust framework that can be quickly tailored to your site, workforce and risk profile. It supports WHS compliance, reduces risk, and provides the structured safety documentation regulators and auditors expect to see.
Key Features
- Comprehensive emergency procedures covering fire, medical emergencies, hazardous chemicals, severe weather, security incidents and more.
- Clear Emergency Control Organisation (ECO) structure with defined roles and responsibilities for Chief Warden, Wardens, First Aid Officers and Communications Officer.
- Built-in checklists for emergency risk assessment, evacuation readiness, PEEPs and ongoing review.
- Sections on shelter-in-place, lockdown, persons requiring assistance and post-incident recovery.
- Tables for documenting ECO contacts, emergency equipment inventories and document control details.
- Written in plain, professional Australian English using current WHS terminology and expectations.
Benefits
- Strengthen WHS compliance: Aligns your emergency arrangements with Australian work health and safety laws, regulations and relevant standards.
- Reduce risk and liability: Demonstrates that you have considered foreseeable emergencies and implemented reasonable controls and procedures.
- Save time and resources: Avoid drafting safety documentation from the ground up; simply customise the template to suit your operations.
- Improve emergency readiness: Provides clear guidance for training, drills and debriefs so your workforce knows what to do when it matters most.
- Support audits and inspections: Present structured, professional documentation to regulators, clients and insurers.

This Emergency Management Plan is ideal for Australian businesses of all sizes, including offices, warehouses, manufacturing, construction, retail, community services and not-for-profit organisations. It is particularly useful for:
- Safety managers and WHS coordinators responsible for emergency planning.
- HR and compliance professionals managing policies and procedures.
