Building Business Resilience Program
Floods, droughts and bushfires are all natural hazards that can result in emergency, crisis, or disasters and create extreme risks to the Western Downs community, businesses, and visitors.
With the launch of the Western Downs Building Business Resilience Program, Council aims to create greater resilience through promoting the mitigation of risks for businesses and ensure business continuity against an evolving world.
