This Standard sets out recommended procedures for the safety of people in buildings during emergencies, establishes guidelines on the appointment of the Emergency Planning Committee, the setting up of an Emergency Control Organization (ECO), the preparation of emergency procedures and addresses the authority of ECO personnel while executing their duties. It covers emergency situations until the appropriate emergency service arrives to take control, at which time, the ECO should work in conjunction with such service.
