Business Continuity Management Policy for the Public Service 2015 - 2020

Business Continuity Management is a holistic management process that identifies potential threats to an organisation and the impact to business operations those threats, if realised, might cause, and which provides a framework for building organisational resilience with the capability of an effective response that safeguards the interests of its key stakeholders, reputation, brand and value-creating activities. The GoRTT is implementing a Business Continuity Management (BCM) Programme across the Public Service to ensure a timely and effective business continuity, disaster preparedness, response and total business recovery, should a significant unique business interruption occur. The Programme minimises exposure to risk, the adverse impact on employees and reputation, and protects the interests of stakeholders and the wider community, while providing for continuity of operations.
