Need a business continuity policy?
Someone asked for a signed policy. Here is the empty template and how to write and sign it.
Why generic templates get rejected
A nice-looking Word doc is not enough. Here is what trips most businesses up.
Most free templates skip the charter
They mix the short signed policy with a long recovery plan, or skip the blocks a signed policy needs: statement, scope, objectives, roles, how you run it, communication, related documents, review, and approval.
Unsigned policies get sent back
A generic one-pager with no name, date, or signature looks unfinished. You end up rewriting it.
The work sits waiting
Until you have a signed business continuity policy, the tender or portal request stays on hold.
Here is what lands in your inbox
Not a filled policy. The empty template and the how-to so you can write and sign one yourself.
The business continuity policy template
A free, editable Word document built around those nine sections, plus a blank approval block. Drop in your company details and prompts. Recovery times and who to call sit in a later plan, not in this policy.
- The nine sections a finished policy needs
- Editable Word file you can brand as your own
- Clear prompts so you know what to write in each section
