Is your business prepared?
The Mission Regional Chamber of Commerce has collaborated with the Province of BC as well as members from several emergency services and local businesses to bring a workshop that has incredible value to any business leader and their management staff.

In the aftermath of last year's B.C. wildfires and Mission's ice storms creating very real crisis situations for business owners, our members are now are asking, "What now?"  Disasters can happen at any time. Are you ready to continue your livelihood if there is no infrastructure available? Are you familiar with your duty to your employees in case of an emergency?

The Mission Chamber has gathered a panel of experts to discuss what you need to know and how to accomplish your goals in any emergency. Learning outcomes include:

  • Building a continuity plan suited to your business
  • Use of an emergency kit and how to operate a fire extinguisher
  • How to react in theft and harassment situations, including your legal liability
  • Moving your business offsite smoothly and the importance of backing up your data externally
  • Legal responsibilities and protecting your business
  • ​How to access resources and services available for businesses
Bring your laptop and work along with the presentation and build a continuity plan that works for your business as we go.

* Light refreshments provided
* Free WiFi available onsite
* Each attendee will receive a swag bag with emergency kit samples from Life472, industry-specific guides, and an 8GB USB loaded with continuity plan samples, provincial resources, and more!
