9月1日は、日本では防災の日(参考 Preparing for Disaster a Part of Japanese Life | Richard Medhurst @nippon_en)です。防災・危機管理の訓練を各組織で行うのが通例です。地球気候変動による自然災害の増加に加え、事故や事件が減ることも無い上、国際情勢の流動性・連動性により国家安全保障事案も増え、ますます平時より不測の事態に備えるしかありません。
企業など組織においては、職員の生命・財産の安全の確保はもちろんですが、組織の業務や財産の維持、組織風評等に係る対応などにも気を抜けません。加えて、災害・事故・事件とは別で、生命・財産には関係しないが社会的には要対応という案件も存在し、対応自体は感覚的に危機管理に近いものとなります。
今後、折に触れて書きますが、まずはご参考まで、ここ最近の英文記事を以下挙げておきます。
