An Ever-Changing Risk Profile
This International Women's Day, International SOS is seeking to raise awareness on how you can protect and support female travellers.
More businesses are sending female travellers around the world yet we know that more than 80%* of female travellers are very nervous about what they may face when travelling.
In order to ensure your travellers feel safe and protected, it is imperative to provide access to destination-specific advise based on their risk profile and offer 24/7 assistance should anything go wrong while travelling.
Learn more from our own expert Sally Napper, Global Head of Security Assistance.

How to protect your female travellers
We advise organisations ensure they provide the following:
- Access to location-specific information – which they can review at their convenience
- Tailored communications – perhaps automated alerts, reminding them of the former information available
- General education – this could be an eLearning platform, where you ask all travellers to complete as part of general safety education
- Face to face training – especially for those people going to high risk locations – it may be suitable to create a tailored approach

The guides outline:
- Common health conditions affecting female travellers
