Safety Update: Swine Flu Pandemic: What You Must Know & Do NOW to Protect Your Employees & Your Company
June 11, 2009, the World Health Organization declared that the H1N1 virus ("swine flu") outbreak has become a pandemic; and from what we are reading and seeing on the daily news the reality of this pandemic is clawing its way closer to home. In a recent Urgent Special Report (" Insider Special Report"), published by SafetyComplianceInsider, the reality of the Swine Flu Pandemic is again highlighted and we are warned that it is probably time we start taking this threat seriously.
This isn't another Y2K or hyped up media scare. The danger of pandemic influenza is real. People have already died from the swine flu. Regrettably, more deaths are expected, especially in the fall and winter when the virus is predicted to make a resurgence-and in a far more virulent form. Of course, the threat to human life is the most worrisome aspect of the crisis. But there's another dimension: the potential impact of pandemic influenza on your workplace and business.
The Insider Special Report provides practical guidelines as to how to plan, prepare for, and mitigate the risk of such a Pandemic. In simple terms it tells you what to do about it rather than regurgitate the overwhelming amount of free information about the swine flu currently available on the Internet. Specifically, this Insider Special Report will provide answers to the two key questions:
What are your legal obligations to protect workers and others in your workplace?
What practical steps must you take to manage those liability risks?
Included are a "MODEL H1N1 EXPOSURE CONTROL PLAN" and "PREPAREDNESS PLANNING CHECKLIST" to further assist you.
