Travel risk & security
Duty of care starts before people travel.
International health cover, security assistance and evacuation arrangements need to work as one programme—with clear contacts, responsibilities and escalation rules.
Cogotec helps organisations review and improve the structure behind international travel and deployment.

Hi, I’m Nomi Assist.
I can help you explore a destination, review an existing travel-risk programme or prepare the questions your organisation needs to answer before people travel.
What are you working through?
Check the destination
Start with current official advice.
Conditions can change quickly and risks may differ between regions of the same country. Review current government advice for every destination before travel and again before deployment.
- UK Foreign Travel Advice
- US State Department Travel Advisories
- Australian Smartraveller
- The traveller’s own government
- Relevant humanitarian or security sources
External travel advice is produced for particular audiences and purposes. It should form part of a wider organisational assessment—not be treated as a complete deployment decision.

Before people travel
Confirm the programme—not only the policy.
- Destination and regional risks reviewed
- Traveller profile and medical needs considered
- International health cover confirmed
- Medical and security assistance responsibilities confirmed
- Medical and non-medical evacuation terms reviewed
- Evacuation triggers and decision authority documented
- One clear 24/7 assistance contact provided
- Crisis communication and escalation plan documented
- Travellers briefed before departure
- Incident documentation process agreed
The appropriate controls depend on the destination, traveller, activity and terms of the relevant programme.
When something happens
One clear activation path.
The programme should tell the traveller who to contact first and show the responsible organisations what happens next.
- 01
Incident
A traveller requires medical, security or evacuation assistance.
- 02
Assistance contact
The designated 24/7 provider receives the initial report.
- 03
Assessment
Medical and security information is reviewed.
- 04
Authorisation
The responsible provider or insurer confirms the available response.
- 05
Response
Local treatment or evacuation is coordinated as appropriate.
- 06
Follow-through
Documents, communication and unresolved issues are tracked.
This is an indicative operating model. The actual response, authorisation and available assistance depend on the providers and programme terms involved.

Make sure everyone knows what happens next.
Tell us about the destination, people and existing arrangements. We’ll identify where the programme or operating process needs closer review.
