The Evolution of Severe Weather Response
Does your company have a plan for responding to severe weather threats? Do you close down operations? Do you wait until it becomes a warning before alerting employees?
Although planning for severe weather events can feel like an attempt to predict the unpredictable, it’s crucial to have an emergency response plan in place long before the moment comes when you’ll require one.
Warning coordination meteorologist for the National Weather Service, Paul Yura, joins Peter to discuss:
- The growing accuracy of weather forecasts
- Best practices for businesses responding to severe weather
- The increasing expectations for businesses to protect their employees
