A new online resource for business owners facing a life-threatening illness aims to guide people through the challenging issues arising from the situation.
The Illness and business management plan from Business Victoria details ways to inform staff, how to access support from organisations and how to decide what to do with the business.
Information sheets, checklists and case studies help business owners plan for the day-to-day running and long-term future of their business while they come to terms with the physical, emotional and financial impact of a serious illness.
The publication contains information on:
- the first steps in dealing with a critical illness
- getting a temporary caretaker for the business
- continuing to work with a critical illness
- caring for someone with a critical illness
