AgilQuest Releases Winter Weather Guides for Preparing Organizations for Emergencies

    RICHMOND, VA, January 21, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Winter is finally beginning to reveal itself across the country, and for many workers that means working extra hard to prepare for possible outages and halting of operations. AgilQuest Corp., the industry thought leader in providing people the ability to make work about what they do, not where they are, offer two print guides and recorded webinars to help organizations prepare their people to serve their customers even in the event of a major catastrophe.

Being prepared for weather related emergencies, natural, or even man-made disasters is vital to business continuity. Staying resilient means that in the event of a large scale emergency, businesses can continue to provide for customers and give employees access to information related to the workplace when it is most critical.

AgilQuest assembled two winter weather resources to guide organizations in preparing departments or groups and individual workers for the unexpected and form a reliable Business Continuity Checklist. The Winter Weather Tips for Telework and Office Workers offers valuable insight for preparing individuals within an organization to avoid risky commutes in inclement weather by staying put and working remotely. Preparing Your Department for Winter Weather offers similar insight specific to groups so that department heads can ready their people for continuing operations in an emergency. A pair of recorded webinars - Don't Get Stuck in the Snow! Digging Into Business Continuity and COOP and Giving People the Right Office and Workplace Choices deliver similar advice but specifically from the perspective of readying the organization as a whole.

No one can really know when we will wake up to an unexpected snowstorm or other natural disaster, which seems especially true in recent years. For large organizations that care about the safety of employees who may try to make it in to the office, as well as customers that live outside of that organization's affected area and may rely on that business to continue operations, it is essential to have a business continuity plan.

The guides are available for download and viewing at Agilquest.com/winter-weather.
