September is National Preparedness Month! Although the focus is often on preparedness planning for individuals and families, businesses must also plan for, respond to and mitigate a variety of natural disasters and emergency situations.
Business leaders should explore preparedness resources and training options, such as:
- Ready.gov’s preparedness planning toolkits for businesses
- CPR, AED and First Aid training for all employees
- Active Violence Emergency Response Training (AVERT) to prepare for active shooter and emergency bleeding situations
Check out the HSI Emergency Care blog for more information about protecting your workplace through preparedness resources and hands-on training.
