Recover from an emergency

Your business continuity plan helps you prepare, but after an emergency, you’ll need to act quickly to start recovery. Start by assessing the damage, notifying your insurer and restoring essential services when it’s safe. Keep your team informed and make sure they know how to access support.

You may need to adjust how you operate or temporarily relocate, while staying in touch with customers, suppliers and key stakeholders. Finally, review what happened, learn from the experience and update your plan to be better prepared next time. Recovering from an emergency can feel overwhelming, but taking it step by step will help you regain stability.

Use the Recovery Checklist as a guide to prioritise immediate actions and plan longer-term steps to get your business back on track.
