This document outlines the key elements of an effective disaster management plan, including reliable detection systems, trained personnel, available resources, appropriate response actions, effective communication, and regular reviews. It discusses important infrastructure like first aid kits, phones, transport, and fire equipment. Assembly points are recommended near entrance gates. Different alarm types and backup communication methods are suggested. Emergency services and alternate power sources are also important parts of an effective disaster management plan.
3. For meeting the emergencies caused by
major accidents, planning response
strategies are termed as Disaster
Management Plans (DMPs) / Emergency
Management Plans (DMPs) .
DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN
4. The Disaster Management Plan investigates
the need for providing appropriate action
so as to minimize loss of life/property and
for restoration of normalcy within the
minimum time.

one of the safest place. This can be the
assembly point.
ASSEMBLY POINTS FOR DISASTER
MANAGEMENT PLAN
9. Different types of alarms to differentiate types of
emergencies should be provided.
In case of failure of siren, placards of various colours
should be used to indicate the situations.
If everything fails, a messenger should be used for
sending the information and the various placards
mentioned would also be used.
Alarms should be followed by announcement over
Public Address System. In case of failure of alarm
system, communication should be by telephone,
Walkie-talkie etc
COMMUNICATION SYSTEM FOR
DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN
10. Emergency Services includes fire-fighting
system, first aid center, hospital etc.
Alternate sources of power supply for
operating fire-pumps, communication with
local bodies, fire-brigade etc. should also be
clearly identified.
Adequate number of external and internal
telephone connections should be installed
EMERGENCY SERVICES FOR
DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN
11. Depending upon the size of the construction site, the
minimum fire protection system
should be place.
1.Hydrant system for all the vulnerable areas of the site
(Wherever possible).
2.Portable carbon-dioxide extinguishers for the control
room and electrical sheds.
3.Portable fire extinguishers of suitable types/ capacities
for extinguishing small fires in selected areas of the
plant.
FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEM FOR
DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN
14. Maps showing evacuation routes shall be displayed
at prominent places.
The map should contain the site related details such as:
1.Emergency escape routes.
2.Location of emergency medical services.
3.Location of dangerous substances.
4.Seat of emergency contact key personnel.
5.Location of emergency control room.
6.The parking points of Ambulances and Fire-fighting
vehicles
