Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

The Emergency Action Plan (EAP) is an "action plan" to organize employer and employee actions during workplace emergencies. An EAP is a written document that OSHA standard 1910.38 requires. It should cover emergencies you'd likely encounter in the workplace. Examples include fires, toxic chemical releases, hurricanes, tornadoes, blizzards, and floods, among others. Emergency action plans must be in writing. However, if a workplace has 10 or fewer employees, the plan can be communicated orally instead.

Almost every business is required by OSHA to have an emergency action plan (EAP). OSHA may require you to have an EAP if:

  1. fire extinguishers are required or provided in your workplace, and
  2. anyone will be evacuating during a fire or other emergency.

The only exemption to this is if you have an in-house fire brigade in which every employee is trained and equipped to fight fires, and consequently, no one evacuates.

In most circumstances, immediate evacuation is the best policy, especially if professional firefighting services are available to respond quickly. There may be situations where employee firefighting is warranted to give other workers time to escape, or to prevent danger to others by spread of a fire. In this case, the employer is still required to have an EAP.

Before implementing the emergency action plan, the employer must designate and train enough people to assist in the safe and orderly emergency evacuation of employees.

Employers should review the plan with each employee when the initial plan is developed and when each employee is initially assigned to the job. Employers should review the plan with each employee when his/her actions or responsibilities under the plan change or when the plan changes.
