Emergency preparedness is a community effort. While we rely on our workplace to have
emergency operation plans in place, employees have responsibility in preparedness
as well. Ultimately, our safety and preparedness are our responsibility. While we
don't like to think of a disaster occurring, if it happens at work, it can be even
more stressful. What can you do to prepare for an emergency while at work? What items
can you assemble to create a disaster work kit? What information can you gather or
who can you talk with to learn more about you company's emergency plans?
