Description:

Duty of care is an important concern for executives responsible for large and small businesses and especially those with multiple operations around the world. Broadly defined, duty of care refers to the legal responsibility of a person or organization to avoid behaviors or omissions that can be reasonably expected to harm others.

Companies today see duty of care as key to building trust, improving job satisfaction, retention, and productivity within the workforce. Younger employees and incoming professionals are making it clear that they are willing to accept international assignments, but they need to know that they are taken care of and safe, and that their needs will be met. With the number and variety of risks normal business travel entails, taking time to build and implement a duty of care policy is important to the overall welfare of businesses.

This course drills down into what duty of care stands for, the considerations necessary when developing a duty of care policy for mobile employees, and duty of care best practices.
