Business travel is a competitive advantage. With the ability to seek out new markets and establish new business relationships. However, it is the responsibility of the employer to ensure all employees are provided a safe work environment, including during business travel. All business travel should be considered a threat, until proven otherwise. These were just some of the issues addressed at the recent New Zealand Security Conference 2012 in Auckland.
?There are 3 areas of investment during business travel, the cost of travel, the value of the person conducting the travel and the potential business value as a result of the travel? according to Tony Ridley, and international?travel risk management and duty of careprofessional. ?Unfortunately, few business adequately and accurately evaluate business travel in this way, resulting in significant losses or single sector cost containment habits? he concluded.
The recent New Zealand Security Conference 2012 was attended by many of New Zealand?s top companies and service providers. Topics ranged from the use of traditional CCTV equipment to innovations in brian sciences and optimised output for executives.
