12、ures for buildings. This Standard incorporates Amendments No. 1 (May 2004) and 2 (November 2005). The changes required by the Amendments are indicated in the text by a marginal bar and amendment number against the clause, note, table, figure or part thereof affected. The objective of this Standard i
13、s to provide procedures for the safety of people in buildings, structures and workplaces during emergencies. This Standard has been written in general terms to make it applicable to all types of occupiable buildings, structures and workplaces. Where AS 40831997, Planning for emergenciesHealth care f
14、acilities, is used in conjunction with this Standard, it should be noted that the nomenclature of the grades of ECO personnel is different. This has arisen due to the requirement for specific titles in the health care area while the titles throughout this Standard (AS 3745) indicate levels of author
15、ity to suit differing circumstances imposed by the building tenants internal organizations. The document outlines the structure for an ECO that can be adapted to special individual needs. The lines of authority and responsibility are also more clearly stated. In addition, the authority of ECO office
16、rs when they are acting in their role in an emergency is addressed. The revisions have been incorporated to clarify points of contention and to include additional facets that were considered to be necessary. The term informative has been used in this Standard to define the application of the appendi
17、x to which it applies. An informative appendix is only for information and guidance.

36、on The EPC shall be formed from representatives of occupant groups and shall include the chief and deputy chief wardens and others who may have specialist knowledge, for example, the house engineer. Building owners, agents, occupiers, lessors or their representatives, should ensure that leases not o
37、nly cover the safety of occupants in an emergency, but include obligations for occupants to participate in emergency planning and evacuation exercises and acknowledge the authority of designated wardens in emergency situations. Building owners, agents, occupiers, lessors, or their representatives sh
38、ould also arrange for the inaugural meeting of an EPC for the building and generally oversee the implementation of matters addressed in this Standard. The foregoing obligations apply equally to owner occupiers. 2.1.2 Authority The EPC shall ensure that, during emergencies, instructions given by ECO
39、personnel shall overrule normal management structure. Once an emergency is declared, the powers of wardens and deputy wardens shall override all normal non-emergency management procedures. Floor or area wardens and their deputies shall have the authority to marshal all staff and any visitor/s to the
40、ir floor/area. The purpose of these powers is to ensure that during an emergency situation, life safety takes precedent over asset protection and production matters. The procedures require consideration to be given to ensure the protection of wardens, the person or persons refusing to comply, and ot
41、her personnel in the area when a refusal situation arises. 2.1.3 Indemnity Both the EPC and ECO personnel shall be indemnified by their employer against civil liability resulting from workplace emergency response assessment, education, training sessions, periodic exercises or emergency evacuation of
42、 a building where the personnel act in good faith and in the course of their emergency control duties. 2.1.4 Duties The EPC shall meet regularly, at least annually, to (a) establish and implement emergency plans and emergency procedures; (b) determine the number of ECO personnel consistent with the
43、nature and risk of the buildings, structures and workplaces. (c) ensure that the personnel are appointed to all positions on the ECO but particularly, the chief warden group; (d) arrange for the training of ECO personnel; (e) arrange for conduct of evacuation exercises; (f) review the effectiveness
44、of evacuation exercises and arrange for procedure improvements; and Accessed by UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA on 20 Sep 2008 9 AS 37452002 .au Standards Australia 9 (g) determine who will implement emergency procedures. NOTE: Considerations may include first attack firefighting, first aid, environme
45、ntal safety actions and shut-down procedures. 2.2 DEVELOPING EMERGENCY PROCEDURES 2.2.1 General Emergency procedures shall take into consideration such factors as the use and characteristics of the buildings, structures and workplaces, appropriateness and adequacy of physical facilities, organizatio
46、nal buildings, structures and workplaces, human resources and communication systems for all envisaged emergencies. The procedures may be developed in conjunction with appropriate specialist advice. While the procedures are being devised, some or all of them need to take into account the fact that in
47、 a fire, smoke and heat will probably present the greatest hazard, visibility may be restricted, passageways may be inaccessible or too dangerous to use, stairwells may be smoke logged and smoke may spread rapidly through the building, including floors remote from the fire. Procedures shall take int
48、o account the existence of emergency communication facilities or the lack thereof, the needs of persons with disabilities and persons not familiar with the emergency procedures. The evacuation procedures may need to be varied for differing circumstances, particularly in the case of bomb threat. The
49、procedures for evacuation should include an assessment of the risk of moving people through areas accessible to the public in which an object is most likely to be deposited. Such areas should be searched before evacuation takes place and appropriate measures should be incorporated into the procedures. The procedures should cover the periods for which the structure contains occupants, including cleaning and watching staff, and be kept as simp
