APAC CEM Webinar:
Business Continuity During Severe Weather
BUSINESS CONTINUITY PLAN: How well do you know the Business Continuity Plan of your severe weather preparedness and response plan? Are you equipped to react quickly to mitigate risk?
Damaging winds, like typhoons, can take out power to critical systems in charge of informational security. Flying debris could impair storage facilities.
EMERGENCY RESPONSE: Flash flooding and landslides can affect supply chain routes. It’s no secret that natural disasters and severe weather are serious threats to public safety as well as organizational resilience.
INCIDENT MANAGEMENT: Bushfire preparation involves planning evacuation routes, preparing shelter operations, and updating policies and procedures.
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT: But how much attention is given to your mass notification system that will be heavily called upon when disaster strikes?
There are several reports published by Everbridge suggesting that the number of disruptive and extreme weather events are on the rise across the globe.
Join Everbridge to find out more about Critical Event Management and how we have work towards keeping people safe.
