Security Plans and Emergency Action Plans

Under the University’s Physical Security Policy, heads of division are responsible for ensuring departmental security arrangements. The policy is supported by three further security policies which cover physical security, personnel security and information security.

Heads of department and faculty board chairs are responsible for developing and implementing security plans for their department, including assessing risks and vulnerabilities assets. They should also carry out a security review at least annually and more frequently if a specific threat exists or emerges.

Security Services have developed templates for departments to use to help review existing security arrangements, and to produce security and emergency action plans.

 

SECURITY REVIEW TEMPLATE

The Security Review template helps departments to record their existing security measures, highlight potential security weaknesses and then to populate the Security Plan template.

EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN TEMPLATES

Emergency Action Plan templates help departments to develop plans to protect visitors, staff and students from real or potential dangers such as natural disasters, hazardous material, terrorism and public disorder.

These cover actions to take in the following situations and should form part of your department’s Security Plan for:

  • non-fire related building evacuation
  • lockdown – securing the perimeter of a building 

Please also send your completed Emergency Action Plan to ouss.administration@admin.ox.ac.uk so that we can include it in the Security Services Command & Control System.
