How sure are you that your employees will be available in an emergency?

Do they have transportation to commute to the recovery facility?

This comprehensive survey assists in identifying personnel problems that you may need to
address in your Continuity Plan.

=======================

One of the many lessons businesses have learned from actual disasters is that key
personnel may not be available within the time constraints established by the plan. Still
others have found that key personnel were not available due to their being directly impacted
by the disaster event or their having other commitments or problems that may or may not
have been as a result of the disaster event.

Another important lesson that many businesses have learned following an actual disaster is
that many of the personnel required for recovery do not have reliable transportation to
commute to/from the recovery center being used. This has adversely impacted their ability to
get to work or to work the hours required for an effective recovery.

This comprehensive survey assists in identifying many of the personnel problems that you
may need to address in your Continuity Plan.
