Why Should I Implement ISO 22301
ISO 22301 is relevant to any business, no matter the size or industry sector. However, it is especially important for those organisations that operate within high risk environments such as utilities, financial services, oil and gas, transportation, telecom and food production, or where continued operation is vital, for example in the public sector.
Organisations must take measures to ensure that they are prepared to continue business regardless of the challenges they face. This can be done by implementing business continuity management systems and standards to enable your business to deal with any situation that may occur.
