Companies should

• Aim to stay well-informed of the security environment and the threats in countries where they have employees travelling on business.
• Monitor local media or use an intelligence alert service to keep up to date on regional and local developments that may impact travel and operations
• Establish communication protocols should a situation occur

Business Travellers should

• Maintain high levels of awareness of their situation and stay away from all suspicious objects, vehicles and persons. Report anything suspicious to the authorities
• Not leave luggage unattended
• Learn where emergency exits are located and plan in advance how to get out of a building, subway, congested public area or traffic should a situation arise.
• Carry telephone numbers for the appropriate embassy or consulate. In the event of an incident, travellers should check-in with both their Company and with the appropriate government agency.
• Maintain the same level of vigilance during off-duty periods
• Follow the advice and directions from Police and other security personnel at all times.
