"Both volumes of the Security Evacuation Handbook have been important resources in our Emergency Preparedness and Business Continuity Plans. They are full of sound and pragmatic advice, borne from excellent research and a wealth of experience."

—Will, Regional Security Director

The second volume of a two-volume series, focused on the planning and execution of security evacuations.

The first part of Volume II focuses on evacuation decision-making. As you’ll learn, deciding when to evacuate is a complex decision. This handbook will introduce a number of decision-making frameworks designed to make these complex and critical decisions slightly easier.

After covering decision-making, this volume then works through each stage of a security evacuation, breaking down the key processes involved in executing an evacuation.

By the end of this volume, you’ll have a clear understanding of how to execute a security evacuation from any location that poses a clear and present danger to the safety and wellbeing of your people.
