Why Most Safety Plans Fail: What Your Church, Library, or Business Might Be Missing

Why Most Safety Plans Fail: What Your Church, Library, or Business Might Be Missing

Let’s be honest:
Most safety plans are check-the-box documents—pulled from a template, printed once, and forgotten on a shelf.

They look official. They get approved by a board or manager.
But when real danger shows up? They fall apart.

Here’s Why Most Safety Plans Don’t Work:

  • They were built without the people in mind.
    Plans that don’t match your team’s actual ability, layout, or culture won’t hold up under pressure.

  • They haven’t been practiced.
    If your people haven’t walked through it, tested it, or roleplayed it, they won’t follow it in a crisis.

  • They assume too much.
    “Just call 911” or “the team will handle it” isn’t a plan—it’s a hope.

  • They focus on paperwork, not readiness.
    A binder doesn’t save lives. People do.

If your emergency plan hasn’t been reviewed, walked through, or trained this year—it might already be outdated.
