Emergency Planning

Emergencies can happen without warning. The key is being prepared before they occur.

Encompass Safety provides a holistic approach to emergency management, helping businesses meet their obligations under work health and safety and building fire safety legislation.

We can assist with the development, implementation and review of workplace emergency arrangements, including:

  • Emergency Management Plans

  • Fire and evacuation plans

  • Emergency diagrams

  • Evacuation procedures

  • First aid arrangements

  • Emergency response roles and responsibilities

  • Fire Safety Adviser services

  • Annual emergency plan reviews

  • Findings, recommendations and improvement actions

WorkSafe Queensland requires businesses to have appropriate first aid and emergency plans in place, including procedures for evacuation, emergency response, communication and coordination with emergency services.

Fire Safety Adviser & Locum Support

Encompass Safety can provide a qualified Fire Safety Adviser (FSA) service, giving your organisation access to experienced external expertise without relying on internal resources. This approach reduces the risk and cost associated with replacing an in-house FSA if they leave or are unavailable.

Our FSA service ensures continuity of compliance, supporting evacuation planning, instruction and practice, and meeting the training and instruction requirements of the Queensland Building Fire Safety Regulation 2008.

Training and Capability

Preparedness relies on people as much as plans. Encompass Safety delivers practical, compliant training, including:

  • First Aid Training
  • Fire Extinguisher Training
  • Fire Warden Training

  • Emergency Response Exercises and Drills

Ongoing Support and Improvement

Emergency preparedness is not a one-off activity. We support your business through:

  • Annual reviews of fire and evacuation plans
  • Testing and validation of emergency procedures
  • Post-exercise and post-incident reviews
  • Continuous improvement of emergency management systems

Why It Matters

Effective emergency preparedness helps protect people, minimise disruption and ensure your business can respond confidently when it matters most.

Be prepared before an emergency –  not during one.
