This step prepares in advance to reduce damage when an emergency such as a fire or a leak occurs. As results, you receive an emergency situation identification table and emergency response procedures.
It identifies emergency situations such as fire, leaks, explosions, power failures, natural disasters and information leaks, and determines response procedures, communication channels and equipment. Drills are held regularly, and the procedures are revised based on the results.
Note: the number beside the title is the basis clause. HS is the Harmonized Structure (the common clause layout used across ISO standards).
Output
- Emergency situation identification tableEmergency situation / Location or process / Potential impact / Likelihood / Response level
- Emergency response proceduresInitial response / Communication channels / Equipment and resources / Recovery / Notification of external agencies

When operating, designate the Management System\Emergency Preparedness and Response folder (or files), and eiso will organize, aggregate, analyze and synthesize that material.
Material to designate: the emergency response plan, drill result reports, emergency equipment inspection sheets. (Management System Operation Guide)
