40 Sample Plan 40

41 Some Ideas: No Cost Talk to all your people Understand your risks
Create an emergency contact list Create a list of critical business contacts Meet with your insurance provider 41

42 Some Ideas: Under $500 Set up a telephone call tree
Password-protected page on the company website Set up an alert to communicate with employees in an emergency Up-date computer anti-virus software & firewalls. 42

43 Some Ideas: Over $500 Consider additional insurance such as business interruption, flood or earthquake. Consider a professional to evaluate and/or create your disaster preparedness & business continuity plan. 43

44 To Do Back At The Office Talk it through – “What would we do if ?” (worst case scenario) Five management questions Contact lists Identify vital records essential to carry on business Employee personal preparedness Are you a single source supplier? Tele-work (working from home) Employee policies What else could possibly go wrong? 44
