H1N1
Business continuity will be two words that you'll be hearing more and more as flu season approaches.it's going to be here earlier than usual, and the US Government is serious about getting the word out.
From Cleveland.com/The Plain Dealer;
The spread of H1N1 could cripple businesses that have sliced staffs to survive, only to learn that as much as 40 percent of their remaining employees could call in sick at the height of flu season.
The national Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said H1N1 appears to be no more deadly than seasonal flu but could infect more people because so few have immunity to it. H1N1 also is expected to hit younger people harder, meaning more adults may call off work to take care of sick children.
I just posted an article about this over at The Franchise King Blog, that gives specifics on what small business owners and employees should be doing ahead of time.
Please read it, and pass it on. Thank you!
