evacuation teams

Crisis removal squads

Evacuation teams are groups organized to move people out of dangerous areas during emergencies—fires, floods, chemical spills, or other disasters.

They may be professional first responders, trained workplace personnel, or volunteer coordinators: The evacuation team guided residents to the assembly point.

The term appears in emergency planning documents and disaster response protocols.
