Organizations which operate successfully must incorporate emergency preparedness and planning activities into their daily business activity. Businesses of all sizes must be prepared to respond to emergencies and disasters of all sizes. Often times unexpected disasters cause businesses to relocate or even cease operation temporarily or permanently. This could certainly lead to substantial economic and personal hardship. Thorough planning for the safety and survival of your employees,customers, and infrastructure is essential to maximize the chances for recovery.

We've gathered some first-hand experts to not only give real life examples & lessons learned, but also make sure you know the steps to have in place should your own organization, large or small, face an emergency.

Join Mercy Corps and the National Emergency Response and Rescue Training Center (NERRTC) for this free informative AND philanthropic web event. ReadyTalk will be matching donations of those that choose to give, up to $5,000 in relief funds for Mercy Corps' ongoing efforts in the Haiti earthquake disaster.
