Does Your Westborough Area Business Have an Emergency Plan?

3/5/2020 (Permalink)

It is estimated that up to 50% of businesses that close due to a disaster, such as fire and flood never reopen. 

Of the businesses that survive, the overwhelming majority of them had a preparedness plan in place. Pre-planning can serve as an insurance policy aimed at peace of mind. And knowing you are “Ready for whatever happens” speaks trust to your clients and employees that, in the event your business is affected by a disaster, they don’t necessarily have to be.
