Planning For Disaster

It is true that no one wants to see disaster befall them, but if one does not plan for the unthinkable, they are running the risk of unrecoverable losses on the backside of such an event.

The American Red Cross has prepared a Business & Industry Guide to help us plan for every contingency that we may face in the light of a major disaster.

Take the time to get acquainted with Emergency Preparedness, and in the unthinkable event of a major disaster that affects you and your business, you can be prepared for helping your business survive the worst of times.

Power Generators Safety Tips

When using portable generators, Safety should be foremost on your mind...

1. Use the appropriate sized power cords recommended by the manufacturer to carry the electrical load.

2. Never run cords underneath rugs or carpets where heat could build up or a damaged cord could go unnoticed.

3. Never connect generators to another power source such as power lines. The back-feed of electricity can be fatal.

4. To avoid the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning, never run a generator in an enclosed space, such as a basement, connected garage or enclosed porch.
