Influenza A(H1N1) and Pandemic Plan of Action: Part 2

September 4, 2010

Part 2: Business Continuity Issues

With all the hype surrounding the current influenza A(H1N1) outbreak, it is helpful to understand that while business continuity challenges associated with a communicable disease outbreak include many of the same elements as a traditional business continuity program, there are also many differences.   In this podcast, Risk Management magazines’ Bill Coffin interviews Michael Keating, business continuity practice director for Navigant Consulting.  Topics addressed include, how to deal with misinformation and confusion within the government, human resource challenges, and legal issues related to pandemics that do not materialize in “common” business interruptions.
