Escape routes in Airtaxi

I have been just employed into Airtaxi operations. Due to the fact that here the flights are scheduled in few hours and airports changes day by day , there is a BIG safety problem :

- There are no pubblished procedures regarding ESCAPE ROUTES to follow with an Engine failure.

I heard some "tricks" used like :

-take off in VMC only,
-use of GA procedure for that runway
-follow the SID if gradient is respected.

but in my opinion none of above , respect the legal requirements.

I would like to know your opinions as I want to develop a safe procedure.

thanks
