Designated Roles and Responsibilities

There should be a Building Coordinator for each building who is the designated Responsible Individual. The Building Coordinator is responsible for seeing that the plan is implemented and will appoint an adequate number of Floor Marshals, assuring everyone is familiar with this plan, and acting as a liaison with the HSO and First Responders such as the Fire Department. 

For the Floor Marshals, at least one individual per floor should be designated and there should be designated back-ups. Floor Marshals will assist in the implementation of the plan by knowing and communicating evacuation routes to occupants during emergency evacuation and report the status of the evacuation to the Building Coordinator.
