Level 1
Red Group
Includes only those employees whose presence on campus is necessary for life safety and security, for example, TUPD and facilities personnel. These personnel would be the first to be recalled in an emergency requiring the immediate suspension of all normal teaching, research and service activities. This group may include personnel, both faculty and staff members, necessary to ensure that research activities that could cause damage if they lose power or cooling are kept stable and viable.
Level 2
Yellow Group
Includes employees needed to maintain critical infrastructure and safety with intermittent on-campus presence. This too is associated with suspension of all normal teaching, research and service activities. This group may include employees necessary to provide animal care, safety, maintenance of perishable materials and protection of records and data.
To be considered for the Critical Personnel List, please email your request to emergencyprep@tulane.edu. A working group will review all requests and notify you and your listed supervisor of the decision.
