Tornado

Don't Take Risks Learn To Manage Well.

Preventive measures to reduce the risk of Tornado

Four components of prevention Tornado disasters

  •   Formulation and implementation of proper building codes. Cooperation of the public with relevant authorities
  •   Public education and awareness in schools, media and community centers about tornadoes.
  •   Proper evacuation procedures for public buildings.
  •   Addressing the traffic situation. Proper storage for animals

Readiness towards Tornado

  •   Pick an uncluttered place where family members could seek shelter: a basement, a center hallway, bathroom, or closet on the lowest floor.
  •   Kits should contain a first aid kit and essential medications, canned food and manual can opener, bottled water, flashlights and a battery-powered radio with extra batteries and other emergency items for the whole family.
  •   One way to get your employees involved is to coordinate a series of training sessions for various disasters and other emergencies, how to prepare for them, and what to do when they happen. Maybe hold one per week throughout the month. Tell employees what they need to know and show them what to do in various disaster situations.
  •   Once you’ve held your training session, give out tests to see how much your employees have actually learned, and how prepared they really are. Give the tests at least a day or two after the training, to make sure that the information is really sticking, and have one big test at the end, covering everything your workers have been taught.
