External Factors Affecting Business. Natural Disasters

Description

All businesses are exposed to some level of risk, but when a natural disaster strikes, an incident that occurs in seconds can take years to recover from. The 2011 earthquakes in Christchurch, New Zealand and the 2009 bushfires in Victoria, Australia demonstrated how devastating natural disasters can be for small businesses. This investigative-style program explores the human cost as well as key logistical aspects for businesses affected by natural disasters. The video covers damage assessment, dealing with insurers, monitoring finances, reopening, and creating an emergency preparedness plan. Produced in Australia.
