According to more than 1,300 U.S. workers nationwide, an overwhelming majority of Americans do not feel their employers are well-prepared for, or might not recover quickly from, a natural disaster. FM Global’s new Business Risk Pulse Check finds 75 percent of U.S.-based workers feel their employer is not well-prepared for a natural disaster, and 72 percent of those polled would not feel totally safe in their workplace during a natural disaster. Additionally, the study finds 71 percent of U.S. workers are not fully confident their employer can bounce back quickly from a natural disaster. The research was commissioned by FM Global and conducted by TNS to gauge perceptions about natural catastrophe-related risk in the workplace. The findings of FM Global’s Business Risk Pulse Check adds further insight as to why U.S. Department of Labor statistics indicate more than 40 percent of businesses never reopen following a natural disaster.
