Instructions

This Building Emergency Plan (BEP) is a tool to identify specific equipment and processes in your building and provide information for your occupants and for the emergency responders that may have to provide services to you in an emergency.

Some of the information requested may not be available or necessary for your building.  Similarly, you may know of additional information in your building that would be of assistance to your occupants in an emergency.  Please adapt this document and any additional information that makes your BEP more effective!

After you have completed your Building Emergency Plan (BEP), and it has been reviewed by your safety committee and/or department head, please send an electronic copy to [email protected] and [email protected]

The next step is to put the program into action.

Distribute the BEP to appropriate members of your department or building. 

Distribution can be accomplished by posting your BEP link to a web site, sending building occupants a link as well, or any other method that makes building occupants aware on the BEP.

Please Note:  You need to review the BEP at least annually and revise it when there are changes. 

If no changes are needed, send an email to [email protected] and [email protected] indicating the BEP has been reviewed.

• Emergency Contact Info and Non-Emergency Contact Info
