Earlier this week, the east coast got hit by an earthquake and now hurricane Irene is coming. Weather-wise, it has been a dangerous and sometimes strange (tornadoes in Massachusetts and floods in places that have never flooded before) year.

We have colleagues in a coastal Connecticut town, and today, they are reviewing their own disaster plan.

Do you have a disaster/crisis-management plan? Do you review it regularly?

If you want to review your plan or you need to make one, check out our latest (free!) white paper [URL="http://www.hrhero.com/whitepapers/index.cgi?wpdia"]"Preparing for Natural Disasters and Other Bad Stuff."[/URL]

    As a bank, we are required to have a disaster recovery plan. Although some of our departments already have their own plans, we worked for several years to put together a comprehensive plan that would cover the entire organization. We finally decided that the best thing would be to hire an outside firm that has a lot of disaster-planning experience to put together a comprehensive plan for us, and it is being finalized right now. I believe that we will perform an annual review of the plan once it is in place.
