SM Supermalls
actively participated in the third quarter Nationwide Simultaneous Earthquake
Drill (NSED) held last September 7.The actual earthquake drill, participated by
shoppers, tenants, and employees, took place during regular mall operating
hours. Evacuation and rescue drill simulations were carried out to enhanced the
mall’s Emergency Response Team preparedness and coordination among tasked
units. Working hand in hand, Medical as well as Search & Rescue Team gave
first aid treatment to a simulated trauma victim at the mall.
Staged at exactly
2pm, the drill demonstrated various crisis scenarios of an earthquake to raise
public awareness about the proper emergency response during and after this
hazard. Employees and tenants were evacuated to the open spaces of the mall. In
addition to simultaneous nationwide earthquake drill, SM malls in Laguna also
conducts an annual refresher course for its employees, tenants, and affiliates
on fire and earthquake preparedness. Topics like worst-case scenarios during
fire and earthquake, evacuation routes, and first aid treatment were all being
discussed to help the the mall handle crisis if ever it will happen. #earthquakedrill2023 #beready #smcitysanpablo #Onewiththecommunity #NSED
