PANDEMIC RESPONSE MANUAL
PANDEMIC COUNTERMEASURES FOR BUSINESSES
Scientists, Governments and Doctors all Agree the Pandemic Threat Has Not Gone Away. Managers Must
Get Their Pandemic Planning Completed Without Delay."
If the pandemic hasn’t started to effect your business yet, it soon will. It has now become urgent that you get ready to respond.
You will need to know how to effectively respond when sickness hits your offices and staff evacuate the premises. Don't think that because the pandemic is not severe (yet) there won't be a high staff absenteeism rate. Employees will be off work due to sickness, caring for others, child care and home quarantine. Expect at its peak up to 50% of staff to be away. Are you ready for that?
Let us show you how…
Like the rest of us you know you need to get an understanding of what the pandemic will mean to your business, even if you haven’t done anything to prepare yet.
And, like the rest of us, once it does dawn on you, what then?
What are you supposed to do about it?
In 2003 SARS infected about 8000 people, killing a little under 900 worldwide. It lasted about 3 months. Everyone on the planet heard about it and the fear and panic which gripped the affected cities was unprecedented. In Hong Kong, some didn’t leave home for months. Businessess in almost all sectors suffered terribly.
Yet, despite SARS’ relatively ’low’ numbers, millions of U.S. Dollars were paid out in claims after SARS by employers who weren’t prepared. There’s no reason to assume the same thing won't happen during and after this influenza pandemic, but of course on a much bigger scale. The pandemic underway has already seen claims against employers, and it's hardly started.
Doing nothing could leave the employer very heavily exposed to litigation if staff infection is traced back to workplace negligence.
The problem is there’s so much stuff on the web covering the pandemic its difficult to know where to start looking.
Finding something usable is like finding a needle in a haystack. You’ll need to spend hours, even days, trawling the internet for bits of advice here and there, and even then how do you know if you have all the bases covered?
In the end you’ve got to ask yourself, "How much is my time really worth?". A lot we’d guess. Definitely time better spent forming a response, rather than trawling and endless researching.
"Get prepared now" and "Don’t wait until it is too late" are what most of our government/NGO websites are saying. None of these give truly practical ideas and solutions as to what business managers should really be doing!
What do we say to the staff? What do we say to the shareholders? How do we reassure our clients that we will have continuity of service?
What if you are asked to report on your plans? You know you will be… if you haven't already…
Fortunately there are a lot of things you can do. There are a lot of things you must do. And like a lot of things, once you know how, and provided you have the right tools, you can get it done simply, quickly and cost effectively.
What you need is something ’turn-key’. Something that’ll give you all the instructions, tools, templates and forms required, and allow you to customize the lot in to your own branding, with your own logo and call it your own!
Something you don’t have to wait weeks to get. Something you can download directly to your desktop…
The Pandemic Response Manual for Businesses is exactly this. Written by business managers for business managers, it’s full of easy to implement, practical ideas and instructions which you can use to get your response ready. It includes:
Fully customizable
templates
Step-by-step
tutorials
Practical ideas and
solutions
Easy
to implement instructions
Pre-written customizable procedures
Tables and charts
The lists and forms
you’ll need
And
much much more
The Pandemic Response Manual for Businesses works for…
…all sizes of businesses from small to medium to large
…all types of office and indoor working environments
The Pandemic Response Manual for Businesses has been…
…successfully
used to implement pandemic flu reponse across multiple industry
types including banking and finance, transportation,
telecommunications, publishing, manufacturing, construction, retailing, consulting,
utilities, PR and IT
*All the templates, presentations, forms and procedures which come with the Manual are in MS Word format, with PDF copies of each one in case you don’t have the programs installed on your computer.
With these simple-to-use instructions and accompanying tools you’ll be able to…
Conduct your own
Risk Assessment to analyse your
company’s
exposure to the four critical components of business operations that are most at
risk from an influenza pandemic, namely:
People
Processes
Suppliers and
Utilities
Set the triggers for your
company’s own pandemic response alerts,
and align them with the World Health Organization’s and your local area
response phases.

Choose an
Influenza Manager and show them the role they will play in handling the return to
normal operations quickly, as staff feel sick at work and others evacuate the
premises.
Implement effective office access controls which keep those infected from unwittingly bringing the virus in to the
offices, and what increasing degree of access controls should match the
increasing threat alert.
Initiate social
distancing policies and know what kind of measures you should implement to minimise
your staff’s unnecessary contact with others.
Put into effect your own travel policy guidelines to ensure staff know how to minimize risk to themselves when in an infection-active area and to eliminate passing on infection to your staff when they return.
Manage a workforce with less to do as
business slows considerably, and know how to minimise the
cost of absenteeism whilst maximizing the productivity of the skill sets which
are available.
Learn all about managing illness at work as it will mean healthy employees' refusal to come to the office due to safety concerns. According to the workplace health and safety regulations in most countries they would be well within their rights to do so.
How to do an on-the-spot diagnosis using the Influenza Screening Flow Chart to minimize false alarms and panic among the staff and avoid unnecessary absenteeism.
Update your
company’s operating procedures with supplemental
sickness response procedures, to officially elevate pandemic response in to company policy. Fully customizable of course!
Disinfect workstations should the
company’s cleaning contractor be unable to respond due to their own staff
absenteeism problems.
Understand the importance of
good communications management and
the critical role it will play in keeping the business ticking over. Includes
some great ideas in alternate communications channels!
Thorough
staff training is critical. The more
the staff know and understand about pandemic flu and
your company’s response plans the quicker they will return to work.
There will be a
shortage of supplies. The manual
will help you to identify what supplies you rely on and how to source
alternate suppliers.
Can your
office environment be compromised
easily? Will the ventilation systems spread the virus? How about shared
crockery and newspapers? What about your visitors? Learn how to maintain office
environmental integrity.
You hear about the need to increase staff awareness, but how do you? The manual comes with lots of great ideas and will show you what the message is which you should get out to all employees. Includes an awareness screensaver.
Probably the most
important thing you can do to keep from picking up the virus is frequent hand
washing. The chapter on personal hygiene education comes together with ready made awareness posters. Just print them out and stick them up on the walls – with your branding and logo.
What about personal protective equipment? What kind of Face Masks should you get? How many should you get? What's the best Hand Antiseptic? The manual covers all this and lets you know where you can get the best deals, helping you stretch your pandemic response budget.
Your government may
require you to keep records of who your sick staff
have been in contact with. Learn all about it in the
contact tracing/tracking section.
And the manual doesn’t stop there. It’ll teach you what to expect and how to respond in many other areas too…
Regulatory Compliance
Public Health Sector Actions
Communications Tree
Quarantine Room
Customer Management
Stockpiling Provisions
Pandemic Flu's Impact on Business
Pandemic Response Activities Table
We’ve even prepared templates of all the forms you’ll need, so you don’t have to! Customize the:
Influenza Notification Form
Sickness at Work Record Form
Contact Tracing Form
Emergency Contact Phone List
Travel Application Form
The manual even supplies you with a Pandemic Response Report template to consolidate all of your plans, which you can use to get the budget you need and use as a work-in-progress Checklist to keep your activities on track.
There’s also a pandemic flu quiz to test your
knowledge about influenza. It’s designed to test medical professionals, so if
you pass you’ll become an expert too!
Plus much, much more…
Even if you have NO experience in business continuity or crisis management, with this extensive assemblage of professionally put together resources, tutorials, templates and tools, you too can learn how to respond with the same techniques the EXPERT CONSULTANTS use!You will need to know how to effectively respond when sickness hits your offices and staff evacuate the premises.

After all we should know, we are those very same expert consultants using these very same techniques for our big corporate clients!
The Pandemic Response Manual for Businesses (and all of its attachments) was put together by a seasoned team of business continuity planning professionals and experienced crisis managers.
Veterans with over 150 years of business continuity experiences from backgrounds as varied as airport operations, banking, telecommunications, manufacturing, publishing, business consulting, medicine and IT.
The Manual is NOT a medical reference written by medical professionals. If you’re a medical professional (or not) looking for what to do from a medical perspective then we're afraid you’ve come to the WRONG PLACE!
There’s already a lot of information out there on how to tackle the pandemic from a medical perspective.
What there isn’t is an ’in-the-box’ kit filled with practical ideas and solutions on how to tackle the pandemic from a business continuity perspective.
UNTIL NOW!
In fact, having researched extensively online (and offline) ourselves, we’re so convinced there’s no single resource like this out there which comes even close to covering the topics detailed in our Manual, if you can find one, tell us about it and we’ll give you a copy of the Pandemic Response Manual ABSOLUTELY FREE!
It’s great value for money…
How much would you pay for all this great material? To purchase all the tools and templates which come with the Manual from our eShop would cost US$525, and that’s only a small part of what’s in it!
What’s it worth TO YOU to save hours, or days, of your time trawling the internet for what to do, even if you knew for sure that what you found after all that searching would be what you needed to know?
US$800?, US$600?, US$400?

We’ve seen business consultancies selling similar products (not pandemic preparedness products, but business continuity planning products) for thousands of dollars!
Yes, thousands $$$ of dollars!!!
After all, they are marketing to the big companies with the big budgets. The type of companies that can easily afford it.
Yes, the very same type of companies in fact, which pay us to implement these very same arrangements for them! And it’s NOT ROCKET SCIENCE. You can easily do it in-house!
No, we are keeping the price of the Manual well within the reach of the SMEs, too. The small to medium size enterprises which don’t have the big budgets to pay for top-notch consultants, or which cannot afford to pay the high prices charged by the consultants for products just like this.
NO! WE’LL BE BLUNT,
WE WANT YOUR BUSINESS!
WE WANT YOUR BUSINESS!
Even if you need to buy this for yourself to help you with your job (without your bosses knowing), or for your home business, it’s STILL a small price to pay for the peace of mind of a responsible employer, who knows that when the time comes, they’ll be ready.
And we’d guess that simply because you are still reading this message, it is evident you too are a conscientious and responsible employer, and you too would get your business ready if only you knew how.
Well now you can and you don’t have to spend that much to do it!
You don’t even have to spend as much as our normal (recommended) retail price!

Not even that!
Well, not for the time being, anyway. No, for a LIMITED TIME ONLY you can have the Pandemic Response Manual at 50% off our RRP. That’s an amazing…
US$95 only!
But you’ll have to hurry. This special offer price won’t last long!
