To help bring awareness to clients and prepare them for potential risks, Aon activated its Ebola Response Task Force and launched its Ebola Response Room.

The Ebola Response Task Force is a team comprised of leading risk and health professionals across the global firm. The team is monitoring the current Ebola outbreak, providing guidance to clients directly through the Aon Ebola Response Room.

Aon’s Ebola Response Room serves to provide high-level insight on the Ebola situation, especially related to issues regarding Ebola risk exposure, duty of care and human capital concerns.

The platform will be continually updated as the Ebola situation develops, and includes critical documents such as Ebola-related travel exposures from Aon’s WorldAware Solutions, crisis communication checklists and environmental exposures of health care workers.

“The Ebola situation is evolving rapidly and warrants constant vigilance to say informed on the issue,” said Nancy Green, executive vice president with Aon Risk Solutions.

“With many tools at our disposal, including the Aon Ebola Response Room, the team at Aon is poised to assist clients to understand and be prepared for potential exposures.”

While the Ebola Response Task Force is coordinating closely with leaders of various industries, including aviation, hospitality, public entity and higher education, risks faced by the health care industry are of paramount concern.

“The health care industry is at the forefront on the Ebola situation and faces a unique and augmented set of risk exposures,” explained Gigi Norris, managing director with Aon Risk Solutions’ health care practice. “In response, we have mobilized the Aon health care practice to help clients react swiftly and appropriately.”

The information provided in the Aon Ebola Response Room is purely informational. It does not constitute business or personal health care advice.
