A new resource for small business owners facing a life-threatening illness
Developed by the Victorian Government, the Illness and Business Management Plan offers practical support to small business owners, in the form of information sheets, checklists, contacts and case studies. It helps 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 plan guides business owners through questions such as how to inform staff, appointing Power of Attorney, deciding what to do with the business and accessing support from a range of organisations.
