Doing Business During an Influenza Pandemic

by CIDRAP

The University of Minnesota’s Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy (CIDRAP), in collaboration with the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), and with contractual financial support from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), has released a new pandemic planning toolkit, ‘Doing Business During an Influenza Pandemic’.

The toolkit, designed for organizations of all sizes, is intended to:

• Help human resource (HR) professionals new to pandemic planning come up to speed quickly on high-priority HR issues related to operating during an influenza pandemic;
• Provide concrete ways that organizations can implement federal guidance;
• Offer new ideas that can be used to improve existing plans;
• Serve as a reference for benchmarking.

The toolkit includes a checklist, cross-referenced to the toolkit’s policies, protocols, templates, and tips, to assess an organization’s current level of preparedness, identify gaps, and benchmark efforts.

The toolkit is available free of charge as a PDF document: http://www.cidrapsource.com/hrtoolkit
