EMERGENCY ACTION PLANS
Benefits of an EAP:• Written document that facilitates and organizes employer and employee
actions during workplace emergencies• Fewer and less severe injuries• Less structural damage• Reduce confusion, return to normal operations faster
There are approximately 99,500 fires annually that cost businesses over $2.6 billionThese fires kill more than 60 people (down from 200 in 1995) and injure more than 1,200 people each year (down from 5,000 in 1995)45% of businesses never reopen after a fire due to the high cost of recovery and repairs
