Ready Business is part of a US federal government website about business continuity.
It says that business continuity planning must account for all hazards (both man-made and natural disasters). You should plan in advance to manage any emergency situation. Assess the situation, use common sense and available resources to take care of yourself, your co-workers and your business’s recovery.
Know what kinds of emergencies might affect your company.
Carefully assess how your company functions, both internally and externally.
Your employees and co-workers are your business’s most important and valuable asset.
Think first about the basics of survival: fresh water, food, clean air and warmth.
Shelter-in-place or evacuate, plan for both possibilities.
Fire is the most common of all business disasters.
Take steps that give you the upper hand in responding to medical emergencies.
