DISASTER PLANS FOR PRIVATE EMPLOYEE
Over the past decade, the Business Civic Leadership Center (BCLC) has issued a series of reports on the
role of businesses in disaster response, primarily focusing on the philanthropic and social contributions
that businesses make throughout the various stages of the disaster response process.
This report looks at a different issue—what are businesses doing as innovators and developers of
products and services to make communities more disaster resilient?
What we are finding is that companies are helping communities manage disasters simply by doing
business.
In many cases, protecting their business operations in order to get back up and running quickly after a
disaster is the best thing a business can do for its community.
What we are also finding is that companies are developing advanced technologies to help communities
not just withstand disasters but also deliver benefits that contribute to their long-term development.
Business processes are driving risk management. The insurance and reinsurance industries have played
fundamental roles in educating business owners and operators about the importance of disaster
mitigation and preparedness. It is in their self-interest to encourage businesses and communities to be
as resilient as possible, which pays off for everyone if a disaster happens.
Therefore, DRRC Regional offices shall coordinate with Private Business to ensure training part of its
employee every year…
