Emergency response

All facilities must have a way for employees to call local emergency services. If telephones have calling area restrictions, make sure procedures are in place to allow a call to the local 911 dispatcher, such as a programmed speed-dial system. If there is no 911 service, make sure the phone numbers of the local police department, fire department, hospital and ambulance or first aid service are posted and provided to all employees.

Call 911 to request service from police, fire or emergency medical services in emergencies.

And that’s smart safety!
