DOZENS of Gold Coast tourism operators will next month be trained in disaster management ahead of what is predicted to be Queensland's worst cyclone season in 40 years.
The safety of staff and customers in severe weather events will be the main focus of the training, which coincides with predictions that as many as 6 cyclones will form off the Queensland coast this summer -- a number not predicted since the 1970s.
The training will also help tourism operators reopen their businesses as soon as possible following a major weather event or disaster.
Tourism Queensland Gold Coast and Hinterland zone director Mary Mourgelas said the training was aimed at encouraging operators to be proactive and have a plan in place in case of emergency.
