Business Interruption

Our Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery modules offer you all the guidance required to embed Business Continuity Management best practice into your organisation.

Business Continuity focuses on keeping business operational in the event of disruption, whilst Disaster Recovery is a response strategy, designed to be deployed in the immediate aftermath of an incident taking place, in order to restore the vital support systems of an organisation (think hardware, IT assets, comms etc) so that downtime is minimised and operations are back up and running as soon as possible.

Business continuity may be the very thing that keeps you in business when disaster strikes - even a minor one. Most managers believe they've got everything covered, simply because nothing has gone seriously wrong yet. Most likely, it never will.

But, what if there was a fire, not necessarily a big one. Or anything that might interrupt your business for just a few of days? Such as:

  • the electricity supply failing
  • your IT networks going down
  • your telephones failing for a day - or a week
  • your key documents being destroyed in a fire
  • you being unable to access the building
  • casualties at work

Could you manage?

To ensure you do, the 'Head of the Business' needs to take responsibility for business continuity planning. This section can help you develop a plan.

The content, tools and guidance available in NIG Risk Assist are provided by Health and Safety Click Ltd. All specialist services are provided by our carefully selected partners. We believe this provides an easy-to-use and comprehensive range of tools to help manage and mitigate risks in your business.

Do I need a Business Continuity Plan?

  • It reduces the amount of thinking time you need after an incident
  • It can help contain the incident and minimise the extend of the damage
  • It makes you aware of the need to prevent disasters from happening in the first place
  • It's good health and safety management
