WHAT IS DUTY OF CARE IN A DAILY BUSINESS CONTEXT? ▪ A company has the responsibility to take good care of its employees
▪ This is both a moral and legal obligation
![Page 3: Duty of Care in a daily business context](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022030210/58a539021a28aba8628b7115/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
THIS DUTY APPLIES EVEN MORE IF THE EMPLOYEE GOES ABROAD
▪ There are always risks when travelling
▪ In business travel, employees are potentially exposed to a range of personal health, safety and security risks, whilst legal trends shift the burden of these risks onto employers.

I am managing a company with frequent travellers. Am I doing enough to assist my
travellers before, during and after their trip?
I want tofeel safe when I travel for business. How do I know
what to do and not to do in my destination country?
Has my employer planned
any assistance if a security crisis occurs while I am on
a business trip?
