Whether it is earthquakes on the West Coast, tornadoes through the Midwest, or devastating floods in the Southeast, or fire emergencies anywhere in the country, Facility Managers with an Emergency Plan in place are critical to both recovering and restarting business operations following a disaster.
First and foremost is the safety of all personnel. By having an evacuation plan in place, combined with a team of trained and knowledgeable responders, you are ready.
With trained emergency captains and employees, along with locations for all evacuees to assemble, you can mitigate the risk of injury or worse to personnel.
Preserving the physical facilities by following appropriate shutdown and lockout procedures can save millions in restarting business functions following a disaster.
Disasters like hurricanes can inflict billions of dollars in damage on facilities as well as cause the tragic loss of life.
Few companies have a comprehensive emergency plan in place, and fewer still have the expertise to put a plan together.
But you don’t have to live in fear of a disaster bringing your business to its knees. With our help, you can rest easy that in the event of an emergency you will have a robust plan in place.
