💕 ⚠️ A neurodivergent person's reaction to an emergency is diverse due to variations in sensory processing, communication, and cognitive styles, requiring specific considerations in emergency planning. Emergency Control Organisations (ECOs) must adapt their plans, communication methods, and evacuation procedures to accommodate these differences, for example, by providing clear, direct instructions, minimising sensory overload, and having pre-planned support systems. Effective planning includes scenarios that account for varied responses and training to ensure a coordinated and inclusive response that prioritises the safety of all individuals, including those who are neurodivergent.🧠

Conventional extinguishers may not fully extinguish a Lithium Battery fire, and the resulting vapours are highly dangerous due to their toxic and flammable nature. The primary risk is thermal runaway, a self-sustaining chemical reaction that is extremely difficult to stop and can cause reignition hours or even weeks later.

Our workplaces are vulnerable—just as the people within them and the communities we serve are vulnerable—to all types of emergencies.
That is why it is our duty to:
• Develop and maintain a clear, actionable Emergency Plan
• Appoint and train Emergency Control Organisation (ECO) personnel who can respond with confidence
• Align our actions with Australian Standards, Best Practice guidelines, and our own policies and procedures
Preparedness is not a one-off task—it is a cycle. By conducting assessments, reviews, and debriefs both before and after incidents, we capture valuable lessons and drive continuous improvement.
This commitment ensures:
• The safety and wellbeing of our people and visitors
• The resilience and continuity of our operations
• The confidence that, when emergencies arise, we are ready to respond—not react.
