An Emergency Control Organisation (ECO) in Australian workplaces is a designated group of individuals responsible for managing emergencies, such as fires, medical incidents, or evacuations. The ECO typically includes wardens, deputy wardens, and first aid officers who are trained to lead and coordinate emergency responses to ensure the safety of all occupants. Their roles and responsibilities are guided by the Australian Standard AS3745-2010, which sets out the procedures for planning and implementing emergency procedures in facilities. This standard ensures that workplaces have a structured approach to emergency management, including regular training and drills to maintain preparedness.
