Before the Tornado Drill
Make sure that your employees are aware that you are having a tornado drill.
Make sure your employees understand what will take place during the drill.
Ensure your employees know the safest places to be during a tornado.
Encourage your employees to get information about tornado preparedness.
During the Tornado Drill
Announce the start of the drill by using a public address system or having designated volunteers alert staff.
Employees should act as though a tornado warning has been issued for the immediate area or a tornado has been sighted near the building.
Employees should evacuate as quickly as possible to the nearest safe place.
Be sure to use stairs to reach the lowest level of a building.
Avoid using an elevator.
In a real tornado emergency, once people reach safe areas they would crouch as low as possible to the floor, facing down, and cover their heads with their hands.
Once all employees have evacuated, the drill coordinator can announce that the tornado has passed and the drill is over.
Employees can then return to their offices.
After the Tornado Drill
The drill coordinator should document any necessary changes in the evacuation procedure.
Do more safe areas need to be identified?
Are some safe areas cluttered and need to be cleaned out to be more accessible?
Do employees know the fastest routes to take to safe areas?
Is a better method for letting employees know of an approaching tornado needed?
