Intent 目的Better enable individuals and communities to maintain health and well-being, and organizations to maintain business function, during and after emergencies.
This WELL feature requires projects to create a business continuity plan, establish a re-entry plan and offer supportive resources to facilitate resilience during, and recovery after, an emergency.
Part 1 Promote Business Continuity
WELL Certification: 1 Pt | WELL Core: 1 Pt For All Spaces: Projects implement a business continuity plan (BCP) that addresses at minimum the following:16,20 a. Determines critical business functions, processes, supporting resources and dependencies (e.g., email, internet connectivity, third-party suppliers or service providers, interdependent departments). b. Includes a list of the roles and responsibilities of the business continuity team and convenes the team twice annually (at minimum) to review, test and update (as needed) the plan. c. Implements a business impact analysis to evaluate the likely effects resulting from disruption of normal business functioning due to a disaster and to identify which critical business functions should be prioritized for recovery. d. Conducts a remote work readiness assessment, including at minimum the following: 1. Evaluates which employees and/or positions (if any) are able to work remotely. 2. Evaluates which employees and/or positions (if any) have the necessary support infrastructure to work productively in a remote situation. 3. Evaluates whether organizational technology (e.g., company laptops, virtual private network (VPN)) is set up to support enterprise-wide remote work. 4. Implements the strategies necessary to support remote work readiness as determined by the evaluation, including (as applicable) methods of communication to employees during remote work and provision for alternate work locations. e. Outlines strategies to support short- and long-term continuity in various disasters (e.g., blizzard, pandemic), restore and maintain business operations following disruption and re-mobilize in response to recurring disasters. Note: All projects are required to submit the WELL beta feature implementation feedback form for every WELL beta feature pursued during documentation review. More information on WELL v2 beta features can be found at https://resources.wellcertified.com/articles/introducing-well-beta-features/. WELL Core Guidance: Meet these requirements in non-leased spaces.
Part 2 Support Emergency Resilience
WELL Certification: 1 Pt | WELL Core: 1 Pt For All Spaces: Projects implement at least one of the following: a. Designated outdoor or indoor space is made available to emergency responders, relief organizations or other equivalent institutions at no cost for alternative use in case of emergency (e.g., shelter during a natural disaster, treatment area during a pandemic). b. Employee assistance fund provided for emergency use by employees in at least two of the following critical scenarios: 1. Sheltering from domestic violence or abuse. 2. Quarantine due to infectious disease exposure. 3. Damage to employee housing from a disaster. c. Shelter-in-place plan for emergencies in which occupants cannot leave the project (e.g., hurricane, chemical spill) that includes the following: 1. A shelter-in-place kit with resources to help occupants shelter in place within the project for at least 24 hours (e.g., water, food supplies, blankets, flashlights, first aid kit).8 2. A pathway for occupants or groups who may be more vulnerable (e.g., older adults, people with disabilities, pregnant women, children) to confidentially identify specific needs they may have during a shelter-in-place emergency.24 3. Procedures for communicating to occupants the decision to evacuate or shelter-in-place during an emergency. 4. A commitment to incorporate shelter-in-place guidelines provided by a relevant local-, regional- or global- level emergency response agency (e.g., WHO, government emergency management agency or equivalent) into the plan, and to adhere to instructions provided by that agency during a shelter-in-place emergency. 5. Annual (at minimum) occupant trainings on the shelter-in-place plan. Note: All projects are required to submit the WELL beta feature implementation feedback form for every WELL beta feature pursued during documentation review. More information on WELL v2 beta features can be found at https://resources.wellcertified.com/articles/introducing-well-beta-features/. WELL Core Guidance: Meet requirement a in non-leased spaces, requirement b for direct staff and requirement c in the whole building.
Part 3 Facilitate Healthy Re-entry
WELL Certification: 1 Pt | WELL Core: 1 Pt For All Spaces: Projects establish a plan for re-entry into the project after an emergency event, addressing at minimum the following: a. Consultation with regular occupants prior to and just after re-entry to understand their needs and concerns related to re-entry. b. Applicable safety, compliance and risk inspections of water, mechanical, electrical, ventilation and life safety systems, including necessary actions to restart building and facility systems after prolonged shutdown and approval or clearance for safe re-entry. c. A list of roles for those who will be responsible for overseeing the re-entry plan. While roles and contact information should be made available to an organization’s personnel, it is not necessary to include this information in the plan submitted for purposes of verifying this feature. d. Re-evaluation and adjustment (as needed) of human resources, workplace wellness and employee support policies and amenities (e.g., use of common areas and shared spaces like wellness rooms, food provision, physical activity programs) to support a safer and healthier re-entry. e. Policy to support phased re-entry (as needed) offering part-time options, work from home flexibility and/or flexible schedules for all employees (as feasible), particularly for parents and caregivers who may have specific dependencies (e.g., due to childcare closures or a sick family member) and vulnerable groups (e.g., people with disabilities or who may be particularly vulnerable to infectious disease). f. Re-evaluation and adjustment (as needed) of facilities management policies and protocols to support safer and healthier re-entry, including but not limited to: 1. Crowd management and spacing and physical distancing of individuals. 2. Heightened security measures (e.g., temperature screening, security personnel to monitor masking requirements). 3. Access to personal protective equipment (PPE). 4. Additional sanitization supplies and other cleaning or maintenance protocols. g.
