Enfield Council has responsibilities under the Civic Contingencies Act 2004 to be prepared for emergencies and able to react to them. This requires us to keep data on our employees for emergency contacts, but also employees of other organisations required for emergency preparedness. Consent is obtained at the time of requesting the contact. Currently organisations include, but are not limited to Metropolitan Police, London Fire Brigade (LFB), London Ambulance Service (LAS), the Military, the NHS, Clinical Commissioning Groups, Environment Agency, Thames Water, British Red Cross, Voluntary Sector Representatives, representatives of organisations offering emergency rest centres and Highways Agency.
