Emergency Preparedness
Emergency preparedness in the context of Business Continuity Management involves planning and preparing for potential disruptions, such as natural disasters, cyberattacks, or other crises that could impact a company's operations. It includes identifying risks, creating strategies to mitigate those risks, and developing response plans to ensure that essential functions can continue or quickly resume after an incident. This proactive approach helps protect employees, assets, and the organization’s reputation, ensuring that the business can survive and thrive even in adverse situations. Regular training and testing of these plans are crucial for effective preparedness.
