40 – Commercial Hurricane Readiness: Human Factor
The human factor in commercial hurricane readiness is critical, especially since damage from a
hurricane may be widespread. The likelihood of damage is not limited to a commercial establishment or operations but also extends to the community infrastructure, homes of employees, and
services upon which all may depend. Employees often have to make choices between business
needs and personal obligations following a hurricane. These may present obstacles or delays in
fulfilling their employment responsibilities. By DIANA MCCLURE

54 – Are You Protecting Your Home Business?

home-based businesses has also increased enormously over the last few years. Today it is very
easy for many entrepreneurs to run their businesses entirely from home simply because it is
possible, as well as cost effective. But working from home is not without its dangers as it brings
various major and minor risks not usually associated with working in a regular office.
