The untimely death of a key employee or business owner can have a disastrous effect on a business. Some of the "costs" of such an event would include:

· A weakening of the company's credit rating

· The financial cost (in time and dollars) to find and hire a replacement

· Loss of productivity during the training period of the new employee

· Potential losses due to errors during training

· Distraction of other employees and departments (deadlines not met, conflicts in personalities, deteriorating morale, changes in employee confidence, etc.)

· Cash needed to fulfill any promises of "salary continuation, deferred compensation, etc., to the deceased employee's spouse or family"

· Inability to seize a business opportunity, because cash reserves are being used to recruit and train the new employee

· Loss of confidence among both suppliers and customers

· Loss of influence the key employee had with his or her business contacts Additional Problems If Key Employee Is An Owner

· Disagreements between heirs and surviving business owners or key employees

· Lack of cash to buy the interest of the deceased owner

· Surviving owners forced to work with someone who is not competent or is not motivated to make the business survive and be successful

· The business may have to be sold to pay estate taxes.
