Human cases of swine influenza have now been confirmed in several countries, and it is important that you ensure your business is equipped to manage any possible outbreak in Australia. The Australian Government has developed a range of tools to help you and your business prepare for a human influenza pandemic.
These resources include:
-
a comprehensive business continuity guide with general information on pandemic influenza, its potential effects on your business, and how you can minimise these effects.
-
a kit for small business with booklets, references sheets and information posters that you can photocopy and display in your workplace.
For the latest information on the swine influenza outbreak, visit the Department of Health and Ageing website. To access the business continuity guide and kit for small business, visit the Department of Innovation, Industry, Science and Research website.
