These are turbulent times, no one needs to remind you.  If you're a business owner, public manager or anyone who has a legal responsibility for humans at work, you need to consider investing in their preparedness.  In the business continuity community, there is a professional certification to help organizations and companies to build plans to navigate disruptions and to survive through adversity.  However, very few of those invest in people.  

Compare the amount of money your company invests in protecting servers versus the amount in protecting employees.  I don't think you'll like the answer.  

So why?  Why do companies not invest in their employee's individual emergency preparedness, similar to their comprehensive plans to deal with disruption, cyber attacks, et al?  Imagine, in today's competitive workplace, that your company paid for first aid training, fire fighting training, provided access to expert courses on preparedness and paid the employees to take them?  

If you're an employer, its the great resignation and this may be just another way to keep the valuable employees you have and to protect you business operations.  When the bad day comes, why do you believe that your employees will leave their families and come to work to enact that very expensive business continuity plan?  Evidence shows that people will remain at home at least until their families are safe and secure.  You are not their main concern and neither is your business.  So invest in shortening that timeframe as much as possible.
