Use Technology to Keep Your Employees Safe

Concur Hong Kong | 05-02-2020

Over the last week there has been a dramatic increase in the number of confirmed cases and a steady increase in the number of deaths from complications of the coronavirus. The outbreak has been declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) by the World Health Organization (WHO), based on the possible effects the virus could have if it spreads to countries with weaker healthcare systems. 

 

The health and well-being of your employees across the globe becomes critical. In the face of the natural disasters and health epidemics, the increasing duty of care obligation for employers is undeniable. Fortunately, a growth in innovation has spurred on the creation of tools companies can use to improve employee safety.

 

Here are three areas in which technology can help you keep your employee safe, no matter where they are located or how their travel was booked. 

 

  1. Locating Employees: Ensuring employee safety starts with knowing who is where at any given time. To quickly locate your employees, we can combine realtime data from the Concur system, HR profiles, location check-ins, your TMC, and TripLink travel bookings made elsewhere.

 

  1. Proactive Two-way Communication: Any employees who are affected by events like natural disasters or terrorist attacks occurring anywhere in the world would receive automatic notifications. You can also proactively communicate with one, some or all employees via voice, email, text or the SAP Concur mobile app, and confirm your messages were received and read.

 

  1. Get Employees the Help They Needed: Active Monitoring managed by our partner goes a step further to ensure your employees receive rapid global security information and appropriate medical, security and travel assistance as required.
