Business Travel Safety & Risk Management Services
Protecting Employees Overseas and Meeting Employer Duty of Care
When employees travel overseas for work, employers retain a Common Law duty of care to take reasonable steps to protect them from unnecessary risk. This responsibility applies to short trips, long-term assignments and travel to both low- and high-risk destinations.
Ultra Services Group delivers professional business travel safety and risk management services that help organisations meet their legal obligations, protect employees, and demonstrate responsible governance to regulators, insurers and stakeholders.

-
Reduce avoidable incidents and disruption

Respond effectively to emergencies

Customer Reviews
A recent trip overseas required a large amount of planning and preparation due to the location and nature of our work. It quickly became clear that this wasn’t something that myself or my assistant could deal with alone The team were incredibly efficient and well-organised – I immediately felt reassured and knew we were in safe hands. Having secured a client in this territory we now engage with Ultra Services Group for regular business travel safety support
I needed swift assistance recently as an unexpected opportunity arose which involved travel to a potentially risky destination. Barry, Mike and the team were faultless throughout and quickly arranged everything I needed to ensure my safety during the trip Without their timely support I may have missed a one-time opportunity which has been of huge importance to myself and my organisation
During a recent business trip I encountered some unexpected difficulty Unfortunately I had not considered business travel safety before departure – but upon calling Ultra Services Group I felt immediately reassured and they dealt with many of the concerns on my behalf which made completing my trip and returning to the UK much smoother than anticipated
