Company Emergency Response
Company Emergency Response (ERO) is the assistance provided in case of undesirable events within an organization that threaten the safety and/or health of employees and other individuals present, such as fires and accidents.
After most of the risks identified through the Risk Assesment and Evaluation (RA&E, mandatory for every company!) have been reduced based on the action plan, there will always be some risks that remain. These are called residual risks. Examples of residual risks include fire, accidents, and all other risks that cannot be completely eliminated in advance.
The tasks of company emergency response personnel include at least:
- Providing first aid in case of accidents.
- Limiting and combating fires and minimizing the consequences of accidents.
- Alerting and evacuating all employees and other individuals in the company or facility in emergency situations.
In the Netherlands, it is mandatory for every company emergency response (ERO) provider to undergo training as required by the Occupational Health and Safety Act. ERO personnel must be well-trained and readily available. Through the NVB ISO 17024 personal certificate, ERO providers demonstrate that they have mastered the necessary knowledge and skills and have achieved the required competency.
Certificate validity: 1 year.
