Field team members and organizational leadership can oftentimes have different, yet equally valid perspectives on a situation based on the information available to them and their unique perspective. We recognize that each level of authority should have the choice to order an evacuation. Field members should never be forced to stay in a situation if they want to evacuate. Field leadership must have the authority to order an evacuation based on their experience in a location and the best interests of the staff and operations. Reliant leadership must be allowed to order an evacuation to protect the team that is close to the event or the organization as a whole from risk. If an evacuation is necessary, follow the Contingency Planning: Evacuation and Orderly Relocation protocols.

Finally, all field staff including field leadership agree to recognize Reliant’s ultimate authority to order an evacuation from a location. Reliant recognizes all three levels of authority to order an evacuation and mandates that all three parties be in agreement for individual staff members to remain in country. No (See Shared Crisis Authority and Responsibility in Reliant Partnerships.) No party can stay in country or order another team member to stay in country while another party is mandating an evacuation of that personnel. Field team members and Reliant leadership agree to respect, honor, and support any decision from any level to evacuate a location. Failure to respect evacuation authority will result in immediate termination of employment.
