This Emergency Procedures Plan is established as an integral part of the official Cumberland Office Park response to emergencies. The contents of this plan are designed as an operational guide for the behavior, safety and protection of all the tenants and visitors to the building.

As outlined on the following pages, this Emergency Procedures Plan establishes a sequential plan of response for recognizing, identifying and reporting the existence of specific emergency situations threatening the building and/ or its occupants; and then provides for the safety and protection of endangered personnel and assets. When implemented and supplemented with appropriate instructions from the building's manager (or their representative), this plan becomes an operational tool for effective and responsive action when occupants of the building are forced to cope with various emergency situations.

Tenant Wardens are the connecting links between the Building Management staff and their respective employees. As such, they have direct control and responsibility for all decisive matters relating to the safety of their employees during an emergency.

Assume responsibility for communicating appropriate pre-planned emergency procedures data to all employees under their jurisdiction through orientation and/ or company bulletin boards.

Be knowledgeable about what is not commonplace; i.e., unusual or foreign to the normal environment of their areas. This will allow qualified assistance in conducting searches and identifying suspicious items.

Because the Tenant Wardens are vital in the response to an emergency in the building, interruptions in communications must be avoided. Any changes in the employment status of a Tenant Warden should be reported (in writing) to the Building Management Office.

Various aspects of the building's Emergency Procedures Plan will be tested on a deliberate, systematic and periodic basis, in accordance with instructions from the Management Office or the Fire Department. Such testing will familiarize key personnel with their emergency duties and responsibilities evaluate these duties and the Emergency Procedures Plan and will help identify any existing deficiencies and the need to make official corrections or adjustments.
