Emergency Plans Keep Your Business Safe | SERVPRO of North Oklahoma City

Were you aware that natural disasters have been on the rise? If you look into the statistics, not only are natural disasters happening more often, but they are also leaving behind more damage as their strength steadily increases.
Statistics aren’t the end-all be-all, though, and your business might not ever see a damaging natural disaster. While that may be true, there is still the potential risk for manmade disasters that could occur and damage your property.
It might feel easier to avoid thinking about your risks, but it is important to stay ahead of potential disasters. When you have a plan, you can keep your people safe and never miss a moment of work.
As natural disasters continue to become more frequent and a wider threat, having a plan is more important than ever when it comes to protecting lives and avoiding losses. Spending time examining your business’ specific threats can allow you to take steps to prepare before a flood, fire or storm hits.
Not only are you at risk for physical damage when a disaster strikes, but it could also leave your business with huge financial losses. When you have a plan, you can protect your team and your income—avoiding or at least limiting potential business interruptions after an event occurs.
When you are prepared ahead of time, you can get back to work the moment things are safe. Many businesses that are forced to close due to either natural or manmade damage never reopen. Creating a plan means your workflow can keep going.
So, how do you get started on your plan? With a phone call to SERVPRO® you can find the perfect package for keeping your business completely prepared no matter what happens. Our Emergency Ready Plan can be completely personalized for your needs—which means your business will be completely covered.
To start creating your plan, our crew will complete an assessment of your business. We want to create the best path for you and your team to take before, during and after an event occurs. Our professionals will walk you through everything you need to do.
When a storm or other natural disaster is predicted, your plan will lay out exactly what to do ahead of the threat. This will likely include preparing your building, protecting paperwork and establishing how remote work will happen. You won’t have to worry about rushing through trying to hand out instructions; your team will know exactly what to do from the moment you put the plan into action.
Communication will be a crucial part of your plan at every stage. Your employees will know the chain of command so that reporting can continue and instructions can be handled efficiently. After the disaster is over, our crew will head to your property in order to start restorations while your team either gets back to work from home or checks in at an alternate physical location.
SERVPRO’s Emergency Ready Plan is a complete package, perfectly personalized to protect your business. When you have an Emergency Ready Plan, you can protect your business from financial losses and avoid closures. Not only do you get an experienced crew that can respond 24⁄7, but you also get the backing of a national brand. It’s our goal to put things back together fast.
