UGDSB Emergency Response Plan

Emergency procedure plan manual for staff.

This manual is an emergency response plan intended to provide guidance for emergency situations or threat of a situation affecting the health and safety and well-being of students, staff, volunteers and visitors, natural environment, or physical assets of a school or board-owned or operated site.

This manual will help in protecting the Health and Safety of all UGDSB students, staff, volunteers and visitors, and to minimize the potential human and financial loss associated with many emergencies.

This manual provides guidelines and specific sequential steps to take. It is critical to evaluate the circumstances of the actual event and determine the most appropriate course of action.

This manual is intended as a guide to help principals and managers develop an effective site-specific Emergency Response Plan. Each site using this plan must conduct a review and determine any adjustments that are required to fit the needs of their site.
