Pandemic Planning For Office Users
It is probably something most of us don’t even want to think about now. However, many corporate leaders already have emergency contingency plans for what to do in case of a fire, earthquake, flood, power outage, or other natural disaster and unfortunately Covid has now been added to the list. Buildings magazine July 2022 had an excellent article on this. “…a pandemic affects everything from occupancy and layouts to cleaning schedules and security protocols. The article recommends having this directed by a qualified person or persons and not by committee. The key words are ‘business continuity’ and what if, God forbid, the next pandemic is far more contagious and deadlier than Covid? It is also like wearing your seat belt and having an airbag…items you never ever want to use, but what lifesavers when you need them!
