Business preparedness

Businesses play a critical role in emergency preparedness. Not only do they need a plan for continuing or restarting operations following a disaster, they want to ensure the safety and well-being of their employees.

Businesses should train their staff and test their plans on a regular basis. When businesses are prepared for disasters, it enhances the entire region's ability to recover from a disruption in critical operations and to preserve our economic stability.
