In the event of a pandemic, businesses would suffer high rates of absenteeism, disruption to supply-chains, disruption to business travel, controlling risk of infection in the workplace and a fall in demand for goods and services, as well as human resource, insurance and cash flow. The threat could be severely affect businesses resulting in huge losses, retrenchment, health issues such as deaths and widespread of contagious diseases, low morale of workers and even potential bankruptcy.
This would be devastating for a business which has failed to plan adequately for a pandemic scenario.
