The Small Business Administration (SBA) and Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company have teamed up to launch a disaster planning guide for small business owners.
The 10-page guide provides information business owners need to develop an effective plan to protect customers and employees in the event of a disaster. The guide provides key disaster preparedness strategies to help small businesses identify potential hazards, create plans to remain in operation if the office is unusable, and understand the limitations of their insurance coverage.
In addition to the copy available online, hard copies of the guide will be distributed by SBA field offices, its resource partners around the country, and disaster field offices. Nationwide will make additional copies available to its agents for distribution.
