October 25, 2013 - Emergency Planning Dialogue
Emergency Planning and Business Dialogue
- How prepared is your business for the inevitable earthquake that will affect Surrey & the region?
- Cities have primary responsibility for emergency response but what happens to your business when a catastrophic event takes place?
- What needs to be done to ensure a resilient and comprehensive approach to emergency management for business? Creating a plan can save your business. It cuts the number of decisions you have to make during the disaster, reduces your legal liability and can safeguard your business brand and reputation.
The Surrey Board of Trade asks for your participation to hear the following speakers and participate in a dialogue that will lead to further action on Emergency Planning for Business. Moderated by Paul Harris, Business in Vancouver Newspaper.
