ShakeOut for Businesses Webinar

Description

Did you know Washington State has the 2nd highest risk for earthquakes in the United States?

'The Great ShakeOut' is an annual earthquake and tsunami drill that millions of people participate in around the world.  It is the perfect opportunity for you to answer a really important question: what would I do if an earthquake or tsunami struck my workplace?

• Would employees know how to stay safe?
• Do our communications and continuity plans account for earthquake damage?
• What would we do next?

Whether you’ve thought about these questions before or not, Washington Emergency Management Division is offering a webinar to share information about how to get the most out of this annual opportunity.

This free webinar we will cover:

• Washington’s earthquake and tsunami hazards and their impacts
• How to stay safe during an earthquake
• How to hold an earthquake or tsunami drill (simple to full-scale)
• Considerations and questions you should ask that a drill can help answer
• Resources available to help you have a successful drill (including business continuity planning)

We can’t predict when the next earthquake will strike Washington – but we can prepare for its impacts. Register for this free webinar today, and join us on June 26th 12pm - 1pm to learn more!
