Emergency Procedures For The Small Business And Shop

Have you seen the mass of information out there for small businesses? Google lists 2,700,000 entries for small business disasters. Much of it is government stuff.So, why did I bother writing this book? Mostly, it contains what the rest have left out. Sometimes, I think that the people who write this stuff have never been a small business owner, have never been on the receiving end of a disaster, or they lead a sterile life in some nice, cozy office.I have done the research, and this is the fifth book in our Disaster Preparedness Series. A Disaster Plan For The Small Business and Shop, which the Law says you don?t need. BUT, if there is a disaster, you are legally responsible if you don?t have one. There it is: your own genuine Catch 22. Having a written plan shows that you made an effort to protect people. Get it? Besides, that disaster is a threat to your business, too. Better now to also have a recovery plan in case Mother Nature splatters your facilities and people all over the countryside. Haven?t heard about this? You need a master plan. It?s in OUR book.

Better start learning now.Experience is the best teacher, but you need help before you can acquire experience on your own.Next best is to benefit from anotherżs experience.

We started early: The message of energy shortages to come wasnżt widely publicized, although itżs coming was announced and published in the 1950's.We hope that rolling blackouts are the most with which we will have to cope. In todayżs culture, even that is a minor disaster. Electricity is the hinge upon which our lives swing. Most of us canżt even tell time without electricity, or when it comes back on, how do we reset the clocks? In fact, every floating automatic device in the house will need resetting.We depend upon electricity for all the niceties of living.
