1. Self Assessment Guidelines
Specifications: Word.doc 631 KB (20 Pages)
It's a well know management principle: If you can not measure it - You can not manage it.
We build a firm foundation by assessing your needs - identifying the gap between where you are and where you need to be. Our framework for assessing your emergency preparedness is built around seven key elements - each underpinned by five assessment criteria. This product has been developed from best practice approaches to emergency planning and risk management. Our approach is based on, and aligned with, the globally respected Risk Management Standard AS/NZS 4360.
