Get Back to Business Faster with Disaster Planning Tips and Tools
Preparation is key to getting your business back on track after a disaster. Whether the disruption is due to natural causes, such as wildfire or earthquake, or other hazards, an emergency response plan can help your business recover faster and limit losses.
Start with an overview of the basics in this four-minute video, "Emergency Preparedness for Businesses," at sdge.com/business/emergency. For example, you should develop a written plan, train staff, practice emergency procedures, stock emergency supplies, maintain defensible space, back up and store information securely off site, and periodically test equipment such as electric generators and smoke detectors.
Visit ready.gov/business for tools you can use to develop or improve a disaster preparedness program for your business. The business continuity planning software includes an automated disaster recovery plan tool.
