They can back-up their data and information by storing them on to back-up devices such as pen-drives, CDs, Hard-drives or even installing back-up software to prevent losing any sort of confidential or important data of the company.
Health and Safety
What can companies do to ensure health & safety is respected within the workforce?
Companies can give workers breaks in order to make sure they do not over-strain themselves and hurt their backs.
Ensuring if there’s fire or any panic attack such as robbery, companies should install more security and safety around the store and help their staffs to feel safe around their work place as well as having full access through the fire exits (the bigger the store in size the larger the amount of security and fire exits).
