Act Y2K Small Business Workbook (Act Y2K Information Series)

There are three objectives of the Act Y2K Small Business Workbook. The first objective is to provide information to help you understand the Year 2000 problem. This includes- what it is, how it happened, and some of the potential consequences. The second objective of this workbook is to help you develop an Act Y2K team. This includes what qualities to consider when selecting a leader, how to structure your team and the accountabilities for each level. The third objective is to guide you through an inventory assessment to identify the "critical systems" to be repaired or replaced.

We help your organization meet these objectives by using a systematic, step by step approach that includes: awareness, leadership, communication, assessment, risk analysis, testing, decision analysis, repair or replace and contingency planning.

The tools included in this workbook are: sample letters to banks, suppliers, customers and employees. Also contained are a critical systems list, Internet addresses for compliance testing, decision making model, staffing tips, recruiting outline, and a home survival guide for you and your employees. The home survival guide includes: disaster supply kit information, water treatment information, food shelf life information; telephone numbers for SSN, PEBES statements, and vital record offices for all 50 states.
