Natural disasters continue to become more frequent across the nation. If you take a look at the statistics from the past five years, not only will you see that disasters are happening more often, but you’ll also see that they have gained in strength.

You can’t live by statistics alone, though, and there is always a chance that your business will never see a natural disaster. Even if that is true for your company, the possibility of a manmade disaster is still a real risk you could face.

Taking into consideration the risks your business faces is a hard task to complete, but it is crucial for staying safe. With a plan, your focus can be on growing your business instead of worrying about what could cause it to come to an end.

The Importance of a Plan

As natural disasters continue to become more common, preparing a plan is the best way to protect your business. Getting to know the things that threaten you and your employees is the best way to stay ahead of them.

Disasters, whether they are manmade or from Mother Nature herself, not only cause what can be extensive physical damage, but they also are one of the most costly events that could ever happen to a business. When you have a plan, you can protect the lives of your staff while ensuring your business’ financial future is safe.

When you plan ahead, you can get back to work faster after a disaster strikes and forces you to shut down work. Many businesses that are forced to close after a catastrophic event never reopen. With a plan, your business will never be counted in that number.

An Emergency Ready Plan

When you are ready to create an emergency plan for your business, call SERVPRO®. Our Emergency Ready Plans are the perfect solution for protecting your business. With a plan that is individualized to meet your business’ exact needs, you will be ready for storms, floods or fires well before they can strike.

The first step in creating your plan is an assessment from our team. We will look over your business from top to bottom in order to lay out the best road to take in every potential situation. Our crew will walk your crew through how to respond before, during and after a disaster.

When a disaster is predicted to strike, you can put your plan into action simply by saying “go.” Your team will know exactly what to do—including protecting paperwork, preparing electronics for remote work and getting your building ready to avoid damage.

The Emergency Ready Plan will have a large emphasis on communication every step of the way as well. With a chain of command established in your plan, information will be distributed correctly and quickly.

Our trained professionals will also stay in contact with you, and as soon as it is safe to do so, a team will begin necessary restorations at your property. While we repair your damage, you can get business up and running, whether on site, remotely or in a previously designated location.

With SERVPRO and the Emergency Ready Plan, you get a complete safety package. Your plan will help you avoid business closures, financial losses and ensure everyone knows how to stay safe. It also comes with our wide range of experience, 247 availability and the backing of a national brand. We make it our goal to help you reach yours—getting back on track as fast as possible.
