Incident Control

 

With businesses facing mounting pressure to comply with ever increasing demands from insurance companies coupled with changing legislation including COMAH and the Civil Contingencies Act 2002, organisations may require expert advice in the unfortunate event of having a fire or an emergency. Records indicate that over 75% of businesses will fail within one year following a major emergency if they are not prepared. Business continuity can be enhanced by preparation and training ensuring a return to near normal as soon as possible. Emergency Planning requires businesses to prepare for the all kinds of emergency incidents.
