Companies Focus on Formulation of Corporate Travel Security Programs
The corporate travel security market is witnessing a major overhaul, as more number of companies across the world are realizing their moral and legal responsibility to ensure employee safety during business travel. Furthermore, companies are also increasingly focusing on “Duty of Care” programs that are specifically curated to enlighten and assist employees at the time of emergency. Thousands of companies either have already introduced a corporate travel security program or are in the process of formulating one. Some of the key aspects that major companies are expected to focus on while developing these programs include communication, risk evaluation, travel policy, crisis response, training, and travel tracking, among others.
Worldwide corporate travel has increased at a steady pace over the past few years, as companies continue to expand their business operations across different cities, countries, and continents. Moreover, despite significant advancements in digital technologies within the corporate sector, in-person meetings hold tremendous value, especially to close long-term business deals and forge new ties. Furthermore, business travel plays an imperative role in enabling companies to expand their footprint, tap into unchartered territories, track new trends, etc. The Global Business Travel Association projects that around ~US$ 1.4 Trn will be spent on business travel in 2020. These factors are expected to provide an impetus for growth of the corporate travel security market, which is projected to reach a market value of ~14.7 Bn by the end of 2027.
