What basic necessities will people need?
Damaged infrastructure, disrupted support services, and a prolonged disaster recovery period can make it extremely difficult for employees to obtain basic necessities. Some institutions reported that they have developed short-term and long-term plans for meeting essential human necessities to encourage employees to remain in the area(s) where the institution is operating and so that employees can focus on resuming financial operations. These plans addressed supplies and services such as: • Food, drinking water, and safe lodging • Vital supplies such as medicine, clothing, etc.
