Overview: It is difficult for organizations to execute their business/service continuity plans when they have no idea how severe the damage is, or how long it will be before they can have access to the environment which houses their core business operations, their vital records, critical work in progress, and production capabilities. After an incident resulting in physical property damage occurs, a proper and thorough site/damage assessment must be performed, not only to determine the extent of the damage, potential recovery time frames and costs, but to ensure the safe and healthful entry requirements for personnel entering into the damaged environment. Article explains the risk assessment for the damages causes due to fire, water, hazardous material contamination. A well designed and maintained site and damage assessment plan that includes pre-loss site safety audits, along with disaster avoidance, mitigation and good loss control and waste management practices should be an integral part of an organization’s business and service continuity planning effort.
