Business Continuity Planning Guidelines

Avatar photo Tassia Stewart March 25, 2020
The goal of this planning guide is to provide guidance to the Federation Secretariat and Red Cross/Red Crescent Societies about the importance of Business Continuity Planning, which establishes the basis for the organization to continue functioning during the crises, and recover and resume business processes when programs have been disrupted unexpectedly. Because RC/RC societies play a crucial role in the overall emergency disaster response, disruptions in service should be minimized in order to maintain public trust and confidence in the RC/RC emergency response capabilities.
