Business Travel Management

Some employers believe that 'DIY travel' is cheaper. We believe that DIY provides little management control and serious corporate risk

Most responsible employers want to know at all times, the whereabouts of employees who travel. On the face of it DIY can be less expensive, but it offers little or no control and hidden costs such as staff using valuable time to book travel rather than attend to business responsibilities, rapidly eliminates any potential cost savings from a DIY travel policy.

DIY rarely provides the level of information that employers need in order to track employee whereabouts. Lack of management control can add further cost and present risk to an employer’s duty of care to its employees.

Through our Employee Travel Management Service (ETMS) solution, we offer employers security and peace of mind. By combining the reporting of employee movements prior to, and during their travel, the employee is never out of reach when urgent requirements or emergencies arise. In addition, all travel data is subsequently stored for archival purposes which provides even greater security to our clients.

In addition to travel monitoring, Flightline Business Travel Management provide comprehensive client guidance and reporting on:

• Out of policy compliance
• Corporate Manslaughter Bill
• Corporate Social Responsibility policies
• Environmental Policies and green issues

In summary, Flightline Travel Management provide a professional and economical solution to the risks associated with DIY Corporate travel.
