During National Preparedness Month, the Los Angeles Fire Department asks you...

What if disaster strikes while you're at work? Do you know the emergency preparedness plan for your workplace?

While many companies have been pro-active in preparing for disasters of all types, a national survey indicates that many employees still don't know their workplace plan for major or minor disasters.

If you don't know yours, make a point to ask!

Your workplace survival may depend on knowing multiple ways to exit your building, participating in workplace evacuation drills, and keeping emergency supplies at the office.

Visit ready.gov for more information about business and worker preparedness.
