Duty of Care in Business Travel
In the realm of business travel, Duty of Care refers to a company’s legal and ethical obligation to ensure the safety and well-being of its employees while they are traveling for work. This involves having robust systems and protocols in place to monitor employees’ locations, assess risks, and provide timely assistance in case of emergencies. A comprehensive Duty of Care program not only safeguards employees but also reinforces a company’s commitment to responsible and ethical business practices.
