Emergency Management Plans (EMP) 

An Emergency Management Plan (EMP) outlines roles, communications and procedures for incidents such as fire, evacuation, lockdowns and medical emergencies. An EMP may be requested for larger or higher-risk events — for example when expected attendance is high (ex. 100+), when event operations require coordination of security, facilities, volunteers or external agencies, when the event takes place outside regular business hours, or when it involves the community, alcohol service, or outdoor or amplified activities.  

EMP plans are developed specifically for each event, in collaboration with Human Resources - Health & Safety, to reflect the unique layout, activities, and staffing involved. Campus Sales & Services Event Coordinators can review your event details and advise whether an EMP is required.
