Safety and preparedness
Safety is an important part of the City’s wellbeing. Safety is also a fundamental right and a common issue that can be influenced by different authorities, communities, businesses, and citizens themselves with their operations.
The City’s preparedness and contingency planning
Contingency planning is a basic task of a municipality, and it is always based on normal condition arrangements. Preparing for various disruptions helps in coping with different situations. A city’s tasks include drawing up different plans, such as contingency and evacuation plans, and periodically evaluating their up-to-dateness.
The general part of the Kuopio contingency plan is a description of the City’s preparedness for disruptions and emergency conditions. The general part of the plan has been drawn up so that the actual text part is public, and the material considered as classified under the Openness Act has been collected in appendices.
