This fall season has parents and schools on alert as they prepare for the arrival of flu season and the potential of the deadly H1N1 swine flu virus. For small business - the main driver of the economy - H1N1 preparedness is critical to survival. Image for a moment that 1/3 of your work force is absent. How will you cope? How will you deal with customers and the day-to-day operations? These are just a few of the critical questions businesses need to ask.

- Determine essential employees and business functions
- Prepare a business continuity plan
