It is recommended that all businesses regardless of size and industry sector should have in place a business continuity plan. The plan itself should document the processes and procedures that are carried out by an organisation and give guidelines for responding to an emergency so that essential business functions continue to operate during and after a disaster.
Do bear in mind that disasters take many forms - the loss of a key employee, an interruption in your supply chain, loss of power or devastating events such as fire or flood.
