Have you noticed that there has been an increase in natural disasters over the last five years? If you take a look at statistics, you can see that not only are disasters happening more often, but they are also getting stronger. That means that more people are experiencing extensive damage than ever.
Just because there are statistics for something doesn’t mean you will be affected by it, right? It may be true that your business might not ever see a natural disaster, but there is always a possibility of manmade disasters happening.
You may not want to think about all the ways your business can be interrupted by a disaster, but it is important to do so in order to stay ahead of risks. If you make a plan, you can lower your stress level and keep work going knowing you are prepared for anything.
As natural disasters continue to increase both in frequency and strength, making a plan for your business is incredibly important. Taking the time to better understand just what risks you face can help you stay ahead of possible storms, floods or fires that could leave you with damage.
Disaster, whether manmade or natural, don’t just leave your property with damage—they can also be a huge financial challenge. When you have created a plan, you can keep both your team and your finances safe.
With a plan created ahead of time, your crew can get back to work quickly after a disaster hits. When forced to close because of damage left behind when a disaster does hit, many businesses are never able to reopen. You can avoid that fate with a plan that lays out exactly what to do so that your business keeps going.
Ready to make your plan and protect your business? Call SERVPRO®. With our Emergency Ready Plan, you get a custom plan that is designed around your business’ needs.
The first step in creating the perfect plan is a business assessment by our professionals. We will look at every potential risk and lay out a path for your team to take that will keep you protected. Our plan will address what you should do before, during or after a disaster.
Before a disaster can strike, your Emergency Ready Plan will cover the steps your team should take to start the process of staying safe. This might mean you have staff assigned to handling important paperwork and electronics, or it could cover how to prepare your building to limit damage. Your employees will know exactly what to do from the moment you activate your plan.
Communication will always be key during a disaster, and your plan will clearly lay out how to stay connected before, during and afterwards. You will establish a chain of command so that information always comes from the right person and everyone stays on the same page.
As soon as it is safe to do so, SERVPRO will dispatch a team to your property in order to begin restorations. At the same time, your crew can get your business up and running again either remotely or at a location that will be designated in your plan.
Our Emergency Ready Plan is a complete package. Your business will have everything it needs to weather any kind of disaster well and get back to work fast. Not only will your plan help protect lives and your finances, but it also comes with 24⁄7 availability and the backing of a national brand that always has your best interest in mind.
