Emergency Descent over High Terrain

Hi

The airline I'm flying for just started operations to India and overflying Iran.
In case of Rapid Depressurization it is impossible to descent immediately to 10.000 Ft due to high terrain on the major part of the route between Ankara and Theheran.
Years ago, when flying for another operator, we were provided contingency plans per airways segment to reach safer zones.

My questions are: is it the company responsability to provide and publish those contingency plans?
otherwise, where could I find the relevant information??
We are using "Lido" charts (LH) and I could find nothing in the documentation.

Happy and safe landings.
