PREPARATION DES OPERATEURS PRIVES FACE AUX CATASTROPHES : nouvelles normes édictées par le US Department of Homeland Security

La ministre américaine de la sécurité intérieure (Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary) Janet Napolitano a annoncé le 15 octobre 2009 de nouveaux standards pour la préparation des opérateurs privés face aux catastrophes.

Elle a ainsi déclaré que "la préparation est une responsabilité partagée dans laquelle tout le monde (y compris les opérateurs privés, les universités et les associations) a un rôle à jouer. S'assurer que nos partenaires privés disposent des connaissances et conduisent des entraînements pour réagir face aux catastrophes permet de renfortcer nos efforts pour créer une culture nationale de préparation"

("Preparedness is a shared responsibility and everyone—including businesses, universities and non-profit organizations—has a role to play," said Secretary Napolitano. "Ensuring our private sector partners have the information and training they need to respond to disasters will strengthen our efforts to build a culture of preparedness nationwide.")

Cette notice, soumise à approbation, prévoit 3 nouvelles normes (établies en liaison avec la National Fire Protection Association, la British Standards Institution and ASIS International (American Society for Industrial Security).


Les 3 normes sont les suivantes :


1. Norme NFPA 1600 — Gestion des situations de crises et plan de continuité des activités (Standard on Disaster/ Emergency Management and Business Continuity Programs)

The standard also provides the user the basis for understanding and implementing in business-to-business and business-tocustomer
dealings to reassure business resilience.
3. ASIS SPC. 1–2009—Organizational Resilience: Security Preparedness, and Continuity Management Systems— Requirements with Guidance for Use.
