In business, ensuring you are adequately prepared for every plausible scenario is essential. The term emergency preparedness refers to the steps a business takes to ensure its safety and continuity before, during and after a crisis of any kind. Emergencies take on a variety of forms, ranging from outbreaks of disease to acts of violence, power outages, and natural disasters, many of which are preventable, though some are inevitable. In all instances, predicting and avoiding emergency situations is not always possible. A good emergency preparedness strategy will always focus on prevention. Where prevention is not an option, an emergency preparedness plan will cover evacuation procedures, delegation of responsibilities, and contingency plans for maintaining business operations. Emergency preparedness is essential in all areas of business and remains a highly valued discipline among employers and organisational leaders worldwide.
