Business Continuity and Recovery
There is no business recovery without people who:
• Are healthy enough to return to work and be productive
• Are assured enough of their safety to not feel afraid to return to work
• Have had their trust in the leadership established so that they desire to return to work
• Have had their loyalty rewarded so they remain employees over the short haul and the long haul
