Disaster Preparedness: Tropical cyclone and typhoon

What would a tropical cyclone and typhoon action plan look like? - Helping business owners in areas prone to these damaging storms be prepared

The tropical cyclone or typhoon season comes around every year, so being prepared in advance makes perfect sense in areas prone to these damaging tropical storms.

Although responsible business managers and owners will agree that advanced planning is a priority in reducing the risk of personal injury and damage to property, and minimising business interruption, they may wonder where to begin. What would a tropical cyclone and typhoon action plan look like? And what kind of property damage could they expect with, for example, a Category 4 storm?

The fourth in the Liberty Disaster preparedness series is designed to answer these questions - and more - and help business owners prepare their premises and employees in good time for the next tropical cyclone and typhoon season.
