Travel Security and Duty of Care for Business Travellers

Organisations that send staff across African borders and into unfamiliar cities carry a duty of care that many discover only after an incident. This course helps travel, human resources and security teams build practical travel risk management, from pre trip briefings to journey tracking and emergency support. Participants learn to rate destinations, prepare travellers and respond when a colleague is caught in unrest, an accident or a medical emergency far from home.
