Travel Safety Consulting Services

The safety and security of business travelers is a responsibility that is often overlooked. A recent survey reported in the September, 2007 issue of the Security Director News indicated that 46% of U.S. businesses have no clear travel security policy and that 80% of business travelers think that their company has legal obligation to ensure their safety. Understanding and addressing travel safety and security can significantly reduce company liability and exposure.

Whether you are taking a proactive approach or have already experienced a travel safety event and wish to prevent future occurrences, our travel safety consultancy services will help reduce your exposure and potential losses.

Our assessments provide travel managers and corporate security directors an audit of existing travel safety and security conditions, along with recommendations for improvements addressing your employee and specific corporate concerns and needs. Our experience in writing corporate travel safety policies and developing contingency plans allows us to clearly identify the strengths and weaknesses in your current programs and develop a comprehensive new program if needed. Considerations include risk identification and analysis, probability and criticality factors, evaluating existing travel practices and routes, and the adequacy, feasibility, and cost-effectiveness of existing protection and evacuation capabilities.
