Modern crisis management developed from the need to control the consequences of disaster in situations in order to fulfil economic, social and political aspirations for growth and stability. For some business sectors in the UK it is a regulatory requirement to have business continuity plans in place. Where such plans exist, it is necessary that they are frequently tested and updated in order that businesses can act swiftly and effectively should a disaster occur. This book provides a practical guide to what should be included in a successful business continuity plan for an essentially office-based business. It details the vital areas of business functionality, practical methods of incident avoidance and protection, business continuity and recovery, site recovery and salvage, together with the underlying infrastructure needed to make the plan work. The material within the book has been used in a wide range of businesses. The concise style, use of lists, sample checklists and forms all contribute to facilitating the ongoing operation and recovery of a business and the safety of its staff.
In order to make the use of the material easier, the CD ROM which accompanies the book contains all of the sample checklists and forms, for the reader to print off.
