Rural Business Support’s new Business Readiness Project aims to help 135 small rural and regional South Australian businesses be better prepared to withstand and survive natural disaster events.

While there has been increasing emphasis in recent years on reducing the personal, social and economic impacts of a natural disaster, there has been little focus on preparing businesses for events including fires, floods and even power outages during severe storms.

The project aims to reach 135 small rural and regional businesses to develop business readiness plans. The project is being delivered by Rural Business Support via 27 free workshops across regional SA between June 2018 and June 2019. The workshops are open to any small regional business with less than 20 employees.

A key feature of this project is a new risk planning tool which ultimately equips business owners with a Business Readiness Plan that can be saved, shared and regularly updated.
