Case Study: Companies’ disaster recovery is emotionally taxing
“When a fire destroyed the Manhattan office of Atlantis Health Plan, the company was so well prepared it lost just one day of work. But that didn’t make disaster recovery easy.
“Small business owners who contend with disasters find that the recovery process involves much more than finding space and getting Internet and phone service again. Relocation and disruptions in a company’s routine can take an emotional and physical toll that’s as hard as the disaster itself. Owners and employees can feel pushed to extremes.
“An early morning electrical fire Nov. 25 wiped out everything in Atlantis’ 10,000 square feet of space, Chief Operating Officer Tom Dwyer said -”It was basically a complete loss.”
