Abstract

An emergency plan for Ricpamba Agro environmental Theme park was implemented based on the Integral Model regulations of the Risk Management Institutional Plan; then the safety signaling was also implemented according to NTE INEN – ISO 3864-1: 2003 in order to reduce the catastrophic events which directly affect both, facilities’ workers and visitors avoiding in this way human and economic loses. The Emergency Plan emitted by the Risk Management Secretary was applied in the facilities, this plan qualifies the level of vulnerability and threats. This study indicates the risk level of each area to propose prevention and mitigation measures for possible adverse events. Due to the research, it was possible to determine a 63% of unsafety in the facilities, since it lacks of an institutional risk plan; from this, it is necessary to implement safety signaling, fire alarm, resources and evacuation maps. First aid, fire, evacuation and communication brigades were created; these were trained opportunely to act in an effective way according to the procedures established in case of fire, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and robbery. With the implementation of this plan, it was possible to improve the response capacity of the institutional workers since they have clear knowledge of the procedures to be carried out in case of an event. Finally, it was possible to carry out a pre simulacrum, which determined the time as well as evacuation methods obtaining an experimental and real time when evacuating the facilities.
