ServiceNow® Emergency Response Management applications help your organization mobilize its business continuity efforts during natural disasters and pandemics like COVID-19. Streamline and automate activities on multiple fronts to keep everyone informed and connected as you anticipate or experience emergencies.

<br />

Emergency Response Management applications include:

Emergency Outreach
:   Stay connected with users via email or mobile push notifications. Share important
    information regarding emergency and safety measures, and ask users to report their
    status and location. With the installation of Employee Readiness Surveys, you will use Emergency Outreach to send a survey link to help you evaluate whether users are ready to return to the workplace.

Emergency Self Report
:   Enable your users to report their health status. If users report they are going into
    quarantine, a workflow helps them safely return to work when ready. Functions such as HR
    can also be alerted.

Emergency Exposure Management
:   Identify users who might have been exposed to an infectious disease by analyzing an
    affected user's
    meetings,
    locations,
    shifts and reservations, and badge
    scans.

Emergency Response Management for Now Mobile
:   Enable your users who use the Now Mobile app to respond to Emergency Outreach push messages and also self-report their health
status.  
Use the Emergency Response Management applications together to automate workflows for sharing information with users, assessing the impact on your team, and responding to the emergency event.Figure 1.
