Emergency Business Planning with ServiceMaster of Greater Bridgeport

Paul Plouffe of ServiceMaster of Greater Bridgeport

Super Storm Sandy fiercely struck the coast of Connecticut in 2012, crippling many businesses and even causing some to permanently close their doors. Ideally, this is something we’d all like to avoid in the future, and that’s why the Stratford Local Emergency Planning Committee has issued an open invitation to businessmen to attend a meeting on May 9th, 2014. The gathering is aimed at creating a contingency plan to deal with disaster and also to develop a list of available resources to diminish the disruptive effects.

The committee had issued a statement earlier this year that brought attention to the fact that research shows 7 out of 10 businesses without a plan will fail after a disaster strikes. We’d like to decrease the chances of this happening by helping businesses prepare for disasters preemptively.

Featured in Patch, Paul Plouffe, owner and CEO of ServiceMaster of Greater Bridgeport, will be a particularly noteworthy speaker at the committee meeting. As a member of private industry, Paul plans on discussing how to best handle significant business disruptions and increasing the participation in the event to include others beyond public services.

Paul was quoted saying “It’s important for the business community and the public to recognize there are resources to be tapped when disasters like major storms and floods hit our are or chemical spills occur or there is a propane gas explosion. You can get back on your feet much quicker if you know in advance where to go for help; for example where beds are available, how the health department can assist and even where boarding for pets is available.”
