Inclement Weather Events
Better Communication During Extreme Weather
Don’t Leave Staff To Weather The Storm
There’s often very little warning when extreme weather events strike. When they do, they can cause major disruption to employers and staff.
Snow, ice, hurricanes, tornadoes, and heavy flooding are becoming all-too-regular occurrences that can bring an organization to a crippling standstill.
Getting to and from work can be difficult - even dangerous - for staff; operations and logistics usually take a hit; and in severe cases, infrastructure or building damage means the normal place of work is out-of-bounds.
More than 100 people died in US storms in 2017, the highest number since 2005, and an estimated $200 billion in damage was caused. (Source: Insurance Information Institute)
Employers have a moral obligation to help employees during these times of stress. Regular, up-to-date communication that is seen and read by all affected staff is critical for minimizing risk and aiding business continuity during a weather crisis.
