Supporting Travel Mobility Programmes
The world of work has evolved, with mobility now at its core. So how are mobility and travel teams adapting to these changes?
Today, mobility and travel managers support not only traditional business travel and assignments but also remote working, work-from-anywhere setups, and digital nomads.
As global security & health incidents, and economic pressures increase, coherent risk prevention measures are essential. The evolving risk landscape of a mobile workforce demands coordinated, smooth processes. These processes must meet the needs of business travellers and assignees, ensuring their safety during trips or assignments.
A structured approach to developing, implementing, evaluating, and reviewing an organisation’s travel risk management programme is crucial. This approach not only addresses travel risks but also fosters a culture where mobile worker-related risks are taken seriously, thereby increasing employees’ willingness to travel.
Compliance with Duty of Care obligations plays a greater role today than ever before. We help organisations and their people mitigate risks while travelling or working abroad.

How We Support our Clients
It was hugely rewarding to work with International SOS, as we could get information so much earlier than if we had to find and develop it ourselves. As we are just a team of two managing risk and security, having International SOS there as trusted partner was a real game-changer.
