When disaster strikes, having a plan and being able to put it into immediate action can mean the difference between staying open to service the needs of your customers and community or shutting down for a few days.
Emergencies and disasters can strike anyone, anytime, anywhere. Workplace emergencies threaten your employees, customers or the public, disrupt or shut down your operations, or cause physical or environmental damage. How quickly your company can get back to business after a terrorist attack or tornado, a fire or flood often depends on emergency planning done today.
There are numerous resources available to help prepare for an emergency, including an emergency plan guide created by the AGC Houston Safety Committee. Interested in obtaining it? Contact Kim Mason for details.
