Emergencies occur every day. The specter of terrorism and workplace violence — coupled with age-old threats such as fire, earthquake, hurricane, flood — mean the dangers facing employees, facilities, and operations are, perhaps, greater than they have ever been. To mitigate these threats, companies must be able to detect threats and determine effective protective actions. Emergency response is the collective action taken at a site to stabilize an incident that has the potential to injure people, damage property, interrupt business operations, or contaminate the environment. Emergency response planning is the development and implementation of policies, procedures, and organized team(s) designed to stabilize the effects of an incident.

As Emergency Management Solution practice leader, Mr. MacGregor is responsible for the development and delivery of solutions designed around emergency response planning and critical incident planning and procedures. Over the past five years, Mr. MacGregor has been involved in the development of Emergency Response Planning for a wide range of commercial and industrial facilities.

Prior to joining Marsh, Mr. MacGregor spent 11 years as a field engineer for a major fire insurance company working in the Southeastern U.S. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Water Resources Engineering and Hydraulics from UCLA and a MBA from Florida Atlantic University.
