Emergency Response Planning (ERP)

Pioneer’s dedicated team of Emergency Response Planning professionals work with our clients to plan, develop and implement the necessary processes to ensure your ERP objectives are met. Our ERP professionals develop a program that is safe, effective and builds confidence with residents and local authorities.

The Emergency Management Approach that Pioneer provides to the Oil & Gas, Municipal and Public Sectors, is a comprehensive approach to emergency response planning integrating all elements of our client’s business operations into an effective and valuable response plan. Pioneer’s ERP professionals incorporate four phases of emergency management into the planning and implementation.

1. Mitigation
   Mitigation efforts attempt to prevent hazards from developing into emergency situations or to reduce the effects of emergencies should they occur.
2. Preparedness
   Preparedness efforts aim to pre-arrange necessary resources and prepare responders to be ready and able to respond in the event of an emergency.
3. Response
   The response function aim is to limit injuries, loss of life and damage to property and environment. Training of first responder preparedness focuses on pre-emergency activities, during the emergency, and immediately following the emergency.
4. Recovery
   Short term recovery starts after the immediate threat to human life, environment, and property has been eliminated. These activities may include immediate crisis response, registration and organization and tending to evacuees, etc.

Long term recovery includes pre-planning of measures: such as working with non-government, government, social and health and wellness managers/agencies to ensure appropriate alternate facilities and/or housing and basic necessities are going to be met and health (physical and psychological) assessment to ensure resiliency.
