Events such as the terrorist attacks in Paris illustrate why buyers should review their emergency action programmes to safeguard their businesses and travellers in a crisis
This is why we have provided you with some helpful tips when reviewing your emergency action programmes to safeguard your business and travellers in a crisis.
- Work with other inhouse departments and external travel suppliers to draw up detailed action plans of how to cope with emergency situations
- Communicate these plans widely around the company so that travellers know what they should do in a crisis
- Review and update these plans regularly to ensure they are still ‘fit for purpose’ and that key stakeholders are still in place to fulfil their responsibilities if necessary
- Use these plans to emphasise to staff the importance of booking within travel policy so that you can locate and contact them quickly in an emergency
- Ensure that traveller profiles are kept up-to-date with the most recent contact information, including the best mobile phone number or email address for each employee
