Everyone's Talking About: traveller wellbeing

“Businesses have historically turned a blind eye to overstretched travellers, but the growing emphasis on wellbeing in the workplace is impacting travel policies”

Katie Foster, VP of International Marketing, Tripactions

“WELLBEING IS NOT AN EASY TOPIC AS THE KPIS AND BUSINESS METRICS TO FOLLOW CAN BE DIFFICULT TO MEASURE OR TAKE TIME TO EMERGE. THEY

DON’T APPEAR IN ANY PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT,

BUT THEY DO HAVE A CONSIDERABLE BUSINESS IMPACT”

Dr. Lucy Rattrie, Business Travel Wellbeing Community

We run reports and dashboards to analyse the amount and type of travel that our clients’ travellers have completed, including rest-time between trips taking into consideration travel fatigue and personal issues”

Bex Deadman, Managing Director, Blue Cube Travel

“AS A SOCIETY, WE’VE COME TO REALISE THAT IT’S OKAY NOT TO BE OKAY, AND THIS SHIFT IS AFFECTING HOW WE

LOOK AT EMPLOYEE TRAVEL” Anne Bridgman, Director, Customer Group, CWT ERM

“By making employee welfare a priority, implementing the principles of smarter working and reducing unnecessary business travel, you can increase employee engagement

and you will see a reduction in expenditure too”

Jonti Dalal-small, Head of Behavioural Science, Capita Travel and Events
