The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Small Business Administration (SBA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are offering a free preparedness guide to assist small businesses in planning for the H1N1 flu.
The preparedness guide offers small business employers tools and information to help them plan for and respond to varying levels of severity of an H1N1 outbreak -- which may lead to increased absenteeism, and, if the outbreak becomes more severe, may include restricted service capabilities and supply chain disruptions. Additional preparations may be necessary if a more serious outbreak evolves during the fall and winter.
Included in the preparedness guide are tips on how to write a continuity of operations plan, steps for keeping employees healthy, frequently asked questions about the 2009 H1N1 flu and a list of additional resources that employers can access online.
The guide is at http://www.flu.gov/professional/business/smallbiz.html
