The City of Arvada, Colorado, has established a life safety plan employee training program. Phase 1 training is presented by law enforcement, based on these principles, evacuate, evade, and defend. Employees then develop their own safety plans. Phase 2 reviews each employee’s workstation and provides options for evacuation, barricades, and first aid. Phase 3 is a drill that allows employees to test their safety plan and then get feedback from law enforcement observers. Employees report that they feel empowered and confident that they can handle emergency situations.
