This site will show you how mitigation can work for you and how to reduce your risks in three steps: understanding what’s at risk, making a plan, and getting the work done. Each step even has a checklist to guide you.
No one can force you to take steps to reduce your losses from a future earthquake. But as you consider your options, know that QuakeSmart is a resource for business owners and managers in at-risk areas. Consider the value of getting back to business and resuming your cash flow faster after an earthquake; enhancing the value of your business for investors; lowering the risk of employee and customer injury; gaining a competitive advantage; protecting your inventory; potentially reducing insurance premiums; and reaping the goodwill of your customers, suppliers, employees and a grateful community. Take some credit for your forethought. You will be addressing a high consequence risk and contributing to a more resilient community – your community. The QuakeSmart bottom line is to help you protect yours. |
Every business is unique, but the research shows, on average, $4 in expected savings for every $1 invested in mitigation.
