Extreme Weather and Setting
LO 3.1 Identify non medical incidents and emergencies that may occur in the work setting
In my setting there are many roles and responsibilities that I have in a Non-medical emergency incident or emergency.
All settings employing more than five people will have a safety policy and this states the emergency procedures in case of a fire and what to do in the event of some major incidents such as a child who has gone missing, an unwelcomed intruder in the setting or very extreme weather conditions.

Fire
