Chemical Hygiene Plan

Emergency procedures: physical damage

Here we begin by assuming that one ever caused the physical damage, that is, damage to the building or portion of the building, has been dealt with and is no longer hazard to any individual or to the building. For example, if it were a fire, we assume that the fire has been extinguished and that the chance of flare up has been eliminated.  Any damage to the physical building itself must be examined by an immediate supervisor of the building, who will assess whether or not the area is safe for use, or, a future be kept off-limits until repairs can be done.  Ultimately, the issue that must be addressed is whether or not individuals are put at risk if they continue using it that area of the building before repairs have been done.  If any undue risk exists, that area of the building is not to be used until it is again made safe.
