Emergency Action Plan

Get Ahead in the Event of Any Workplace Emergency/Protect Workers in Emergencies with SafetyCulture

Documenting emergency procedures and plans with pen-and-paper can be challenging as it requires demonstrable efforts for developing, implementing, and updating. To improve workflows and increase safety and efficiency in times of emergency in the workplace, consider using a digital solution instead.

In emergencies, having your plans on-hand in your mobile devices or laptops can empower staff to act safely and accordingly. A digital solution can streamline operations, as well as save time, money, and effort that is often associated with managing traditional documents.

SafetyCulture (formerly iAuditor) is one such digital platform that you can consider. Mobile-ready and with real-time sync across devices, SafetyCulture is the world’s leading inspection, operations, and auditing platform, aiming to empower emergency coordinators with a training and preventive action tool. Through its free premade editable emergency action plan templates in the Public Library, you can quickly and easily get started by editing them as you need and storing all files in the cloud for quick reference anytime and anywhere. Each file in your cloud comes with its own customizable access controls for data security and integrity. You also have the option to create your own plan using SafetyCulture’s drag-and-drop form builder, or upload your existing one for SafetyCulture use to get the same benefits.
