IMW Consultants helps businesses limit financial losses from swine flu with a contingency plan that can be implemented in just a few hours.
"Fear of the virus may have a greater impact on businesses than the virus itself," said Amy Edwards, senior partner at the firm. "We want to give all businesses that rely on customer contact, such as shopping and fitness centers, ski resorts and movie theaters, the tools they need to assure their customers and employees that they are doing everything possible to protect them."
The consulting firm, with offices in Shreveport, La., and Woodland Park, Colo., has marketed the plan at just under $200 in an effort to reach as many businesses as possible. The H1N1 Contingency Plan is available for download and designed to accommodate a wide range of business situations. Organizations such as churches, business associations, and community clubs also can benefit from the plan, which provides simple, easily accomplished steps to plan for and help prevent the spread of flu.
IMW Consultants' H1N1 Contingency Plan includes updates through next summer, should new recommendations on the flu emerge. The company website is www.imwconsultants.com.
