Today our volunteers were down at the Coles Home Delivery Hub in Dandenong South to talk all things driver safety in storm and floods for their delivery truck drivers. This centre covers deliveries to people's houses and business across the southern, eastern and outer Melbourne metro areas going as far as Phillip Island. It was great to hear about the safety initiatives and practices already in place for the drivers and to discuss other hazards they may come across when roads are flooded or when storms pull trees down that block their delivery route. Remember if it is flooded, forget it! Never drive through floodwaters.

This is just one of the ways our volunteers make an impact in the emergency management sector to help public safety. If you can see yourself getting involved for your community you can express your interest in joining at the following link: https://www.ses.vic.gov.au/join-us/volunteer

Today is the Great ShakeOut, a global drill held every year, to educate the community on earthquake safety.
As the control agency for earthquake, we want every Victorian to know the three important steps to stay safe during an earthquake:

DROP, COVER, and HOLD ON!

Even though high magnitude earthquakes are rare in Victoria, they do happen and you could experience one while travelling overseas.

If you didn't wake suddenly at 2am this morning and wonder why, who even are you??
If you did - it was due to a 4.8 magnitude earthquake just outside Leongatha.

Hands up 🤚 if you know what to do in the event of an earthquake. If you didn't raise your hand - don't worry, we got you! Head to our website to learn more about how to prepare and stay safe during an earthquake;
