Emergency Preparedness for Your Business

10/6/2020 (Permalink)

The 2020 theme for National Preparedness Month is Disasters Don’t Wait.  Make Your Plan Today! 

This year, we have all been tested for our resilience and preparedness in the face of a national pandemic.  We have, no doubt, implemented safe practices for social distancing, keeping our indoor and outdoor areas clean and helping to stop or slow the spread of Covid-19.  We need to take these measures a step further if we have not already done so.  We need to set some time aside for the practices and preparedness exercises set forth during National Preparedness Month (NPM). It’s not too late! “Disasters happen” and can take place any time of year, not only devastating individuals and neighborhoods, but entire communities, including businesses of all sizes. Be Ready for Disasters. If you haven’t already done so, you can become prepared for a flood, fire or other weather-related disaster now by taking three simple steps: 

• Have a plan to stay in business;
• Encourage your employees to become ready;
• Protect your investment.

We must work together as a team to ensure that our families, businesses, places of worship, and neighborhoods are ready for any type of disaster that can potentially affect our local community.
