Description
The EAP Critical Incident Response - Continuum of Services (Continuum) guides EA professionals to work collaboratively with businesses to prepare and respond to disasters.
The need for EA professionals to understand the role of technology in disaster management and response has never been greater for businesses around the world. Technology can be the cornerstone of communication, information and resources during and after disaster response. This presentation will utilize the Continuum as the foundation to review how technology can be harnessed to help or can hinder workplace crisis response.
Objectives:
• analyze the EAP Critical Incident Response: Continuum of Services from a technological perspective identifying how technology spans the EAP and workplace response from disaster preparation through follow-up;
• describe how technology has been used to support business continuity and resiliency with respect to a variety of workplace disasters and other crises;
• identify resources to assess technological need and develop customized technological responses to workplace disasters.
