EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS

Is your business prepared for a natural disaster?

Disasters can be catastrophic to businesses and local economies. Small businesses — which are the majority of businesses on the North Shore — are especially vulnerable to the impacts of disasters. 

Not only are well prepared businesses better able to survive a disaster, having them up and running after a disaster or emergency is also a very important part of community recovery. 

NSEM is using Alertable to send out alerts for emergencies such as severe weather and natural disasters.

In the event of a emergency or disaster you will need some basic supplies. Many items may already be in your home.

A household emergency plan will help you connect with family members if you're not together when an emergency happens.
