Improving of the working environment by using work-based preparation is one of the main elements to be better prepared to crisis. Problem is that enterprises don’t have any learning support system to recognize possible threats, provide efficient knowledge management and prepare for crisis. Crisis management is set of procedures applied in handling, containment and resolution of an emergency in planned and coordinated steps. Crisis plan has almost every company, but not everyone knows what is necessary to do at first when some crisis come. It is very important to mark out and to mind which steps are the most important. Disasters such as earthquakes or floods and others make complicated situations, but large scale of catastrophes are not the only problems that can trouble the companies. In fact, there is much more of the smaller ones, for example the fallen tree over the delivery road. Goal of this paper is to analyse and design the support system for work-based preparation for crisis. This paper describes an information system with a goal of preparing workers for potential crisis at their workplace. The preparation is important in order to avoid economical effects of crisis. The result of the research is the analysis of possible threats of crisis, design of the information system and recommendations for developing work-based learning with regard to the encouragement of efficient knowledge management in entrepreneurship.
