What is the primary objective of International SOS's duty of care framework for employees?

• A. To maximize travel speed
• B. To prevent harm by proactively assessing risks, providing access to medical and security support, and ensuring safe work travel through policies and incident response plans.
• C. To minimize costs
• D. To limit travel to high-risk areas

Answer: (B)

Duty of care for employees centers on preventing harm by actively identifying and managing risks before they affect people. International SOS’s framework puts this into action by proactively assessing travel and work risks, giving employees access to medical and security support when needed, and ensuring safe work travel through clear policies and incident response plans. This approach prioritizes safety and wellbeing over speed or cost, and it uses structured policies and crisis response to keep people protected, even if that means adjusting or avoiding travel when risks are high.
