New service advises female business travellers

Female business travellers have a new resource to advise and support them when travelling and working abroad.

The Female Traveller Safety Reports, launched by travel risk intelligence company Riskline, are a new addition to a series of detailed country-specific reports carefully researched by trusted local intelligence experts on the ground. 

Riskline’s team of female analysts has created bespoke reports for over 220 countries and territories, all providing information on local customs and laws, safety concerns as well as specific details on health and wellness that directly affect female travellers.

The reports are designed to support a company’s Duty of Care obligation to keep their employees safe while travelling.

The Female Traveller Safety Reports contain granular detail specific to particular areas of each country and have been designed by experts to appeal to a wide spectrum of female travellers, regardless of age, whether on a short or long-term assignment or travelling for work or study.

The reports are accessible to employers and their staff via Riskline’s portal and app. 

Suzanne Sangiovese, Operations Manager – Americas – at Riskline, said: “Not all travellers are the same, and female travellers face unique safety risks. Women can be perceived as an “easier target” for criminals and are more likely than men to be victims of sexual harassment.

“The new Female Traveller Safety Reports contain comprehensive and up to date information on local customs and laws as well as details of cultural nuances and bias in business settings. Our trusted intelligence experts on the ground assess risk on a 24/7 basis using internationally recognised risk management procedures, which focus on the safety and security of travellers and the integrity of their travel plans.”
