In this thesis, we will be studying the impact of disasters on active facilities, and we will also be highlighting different types of possible hazards, those which are foreseen and unforeseen. However, the general aim of this research is not to study these disasters themselves, but to study how facilities should react and have existing plans when these tragedies occur. It is important to understand the hierarchy and responsibilities within facilities and how each individual should react in order to face any possible catastrophe and to avoid fatalities, injuries, and damages that might affect the facility’s assets. The previous general aim will be followed by real-life examples from several active facilities. Also, some investigations and researches will be done on different countries. We will be taking Italy as a reference country, highlighting some laws, regulations, internal and external facility responsibilities that accompanies any disasters that might affect facilities. The other two countries will be investigated, researched, and finally compared with the reference country chosen. The comparison is important in order to understand if systems and mentalities in the chosen countries for the analysis are similar or differs when it comes to facing or avoiding foreseen or unforeseen catastrophes within active facilities. In case the analysis shows a major variation of laws and approaches, it is important to understand the reasons behind having different approaches and also to see which of these systems is more efficient when it comes to dealing with hazards. Incase these laws, regulations, or management facilities within difficult situations does not exist or is margined, then it is necessary to highlight the advantages of having them and the consequences that can be faced in case they do not exist. So this thesis at the end, will become a study and a proposal that can be submitted to responsible sides within countries that does not seriously consider the importance of managing facilities and dividing responsibilities during possible threats, hoping to trigger the necessity of this type of facility management for the sake of keeping workers and employees safe and ready and alert. Finally, we will do a case study on a chosen facility in one of the studied countries. The aim is to investigate this facility, checking whether it complies with local safety laws. We will try to inspect this facility in order to check the availability of emergency plans or tools that can be helpful during any possible hazard. We will then report these problems, proposing solutions or additions that can be considered in order to guarantee a safer working space.
In questa tesi, studieremo l'impatto delle catastrofi sulle strutture attive e metteremo anche in evidenza diversi tipi di possibili pericoli, quelli previsti e imprevisti. Tuttavia, lo scopo generale di questa ricerca non è studiare questi disastri stessi, ma studiare come le strutture dovrebbero reagire e avere piani esistenti quando si verificano queste tragedie. È importante comprendere la gerarchia e le responsabilità all'interno delle strutture e come ogni individuo dovrebbe reagire per affrontare ogni possibile catastrofe ed evitare incidenti mortali, lesioni e danni che potrebbero influenzare le risorse della struttura. Il precedente obiettivo generale sarà seguito da esempi di vita reale di diverse strutture attive. Inoltre, alcune indagini e ricerche saranno condotte su diversi paesi. Prenderemo l'Italia come paese di riferimento, mettendo in evidenza alcune leggi, regolamenti, responsabilità delle strutture interne ed esterne che accompagnano eventuali catastrofi che potrebbero interessare le strutture. Gli altri due paesi saranno esaminati, ricercati e infine confrontati con il paese di riferimento scelto. Il confronto è importante per capire se i sistemi e le mentalità nei paesi scelti per l'analisi sono simili o diversi quando si tratta di affrontare o evitare catastrofi previste o impreviste all'interno di strutture attive. Nel caso in cui l'analisi mostri una grande variazione di leggi e approcci, è importante comprendere le ragioni alla base di approcci diversi e anche vedere quale di questi sistemi è più efficiente quando si tratta di affrontare i pericoli. Incase queste leggi, regolamenti o strutture di gestione in situazioni difficili non esistono o sono marginali, quindi è necessario evidenziare i vantaggi di averli e le conseguenze che possono essere affrontate nel caso in cui non esistano. Quindi questa tesi alla fine diventerà uno studio e una proposta che può essere presentata alle parti responsabili all'interno dei paesi che non considera seriamente l'importanza della gestione delle strutture e della divisione delle responsabilità durante le possibili minacce, nella speranza di innescare la necessità di questo tipo di struttura gestione al fine di mantenere lavoratori e dipendenti sicuri, pronti e vigili. Infine, faremo un caso di studio su una struttura prescelta in uno dei paesi studiati. L'obiettivo è indagare su questa struttura, verificando se è conforme alle leggi sulla sicurezza locali. Cercheremo di ispezionare questa struttura al fine di verificare la disponibilità di piani o strumenti di emergenza che possono essere utili durante ogni possibile pericolo. Segnaleremo quindi questi problemi, proponendo soluzioni o aggiunte che possono essere prese in considerazione per garantire uno spazio di lavoro più sicuro.

Abstract
In this thesis, we will be studying the impact of disasters on active facilities, and we will also be highlighting different types of possible hazards, those which are foreseen and unforeseen. However, the general aim of this research is not to study these disasters themselves, but to study how facilities should react and have existing plans when these tragedies occur. It is important to understand the hierarchy and responsibilities within facilities and how each individual should react in order to face any possible catastrophe and to avoid fatalities, injuries, and damages that might affect the facility’s assets. The previous general aim will be followed by real-life examples from several active facilities. Also, some investigations and researches will be done on different countries. We will be taking Italy as a reference country, highlighting some laws, regulations, internal and external facility responsibilities that accompanies any disasters that might affect facilities. The other two countries will be investigated, researched, and finally compared with the reference country chosen. The comparison is important in order to understand if systems and mentalities in the chosen countries for the analysis are similar or differs when it comes to facing or avoiding foreseen or unforeseen catastrophes within active facilities. In case the analysis shows a major variation of laws and approaches, it is important to understand the reasons behind having different approaches and also to see which of these systems is more efficient when it comes to dealing with hazards. Incase these laws, regulations, or management facilities within difficult situations does not exist or is margined, then it is necessary to highlight the advantages of having them and the consequences that can be faced in case they do not exist. So this thesis at the end, will become a study and a proposal that can be submitted to responsible sides within countries that does not seriously consider the importance of managing facilities and dividing responsibilities during possible threats, hoping to trigger the necessity of this type of facility management for the sake of keeping workers and employees safe and ready and alert. Finally, we will do a case study on a chosen facility in one of the studied countries. The aim is to investigate this facility, checking whether it complies with local safety laws.
