In today's world, having a comprehensive disaster/emergency and business continuity program is critical, but where is the best place to start?

Along with the full 2007 Standard text, Implementing NFPA 1600 contains the practical, hands-on guidance business owners, managers, and consultants need for both private and public sector organizations. It provides expert assistance in every area involved with disaster/emergency management including:

  • Mitigation
  • Preparedness
  • Response
  • Recovery
Two-color visuals illustrate key concepts. A wealth of useful forms, worksheets, checklists, and surveys are provided in the text - such as a Risk Assessment Checklist, Cost-Benefit Analysis Worksheet, Hazard Mitigation Checklist, Utilities and Emergency Power Supplies Checklist, Pre-Incident Planning Form, Example Incident Action Plan, and many more. A CD-ROM is included with 27 forms in an interactive/printable format.

In addition, a CD-ROM containing interactive forms you can use to supplement your organization's efforts to implement NFPA 1600 can be found in the back of the book. Some of the forms can be found throughout the text accompanying discussions of how the forms can be used in the field.
