Key Elements of an Onsite Emergency Preparedness Flip Chart:

 An onsite Emergency preparedness plan flip chart brief should quickly outline the key actions to take in case of various emergencies on site, including clear identification of potential hazards, designated roles, evacuation routes, assembly points, communication procedures, and first aid response, all presented in a concise and easily understandable format for quick reference during an emergency.
