A Company's Impact, Reflecting on London 7/7: The Traveller Files

Welcome to another gripping episode of Talk'n TRM: The Traveller Files, in this poignant episode, we delve into a remarkable story of compassion and resilience as Mike Causey recounts the actions of his company on the fateful day of the London tube bombings on 7th July 2005.

Mike vividly describes how, in the face of chaos and uncertainty, his company immediately shifted their focus to the safety and well-being of their staff. Dropping everything else, the company's priority became identifying the whereabouts of their employees and ensuring they were safe. It's a testament to the human element in travel risk management—recognising that people's safety should always take precedence.

Our host, Bex Deadman, reflects on the profound impact of such events on individuals and organisations. She emphasises the importance of treating travel risk management as people risk management, stressing the necessity of robust communication channels and the imperative to know the whereabouts of employees during crises.

As Bex explores the aftermath of this tragic event, she sheds light on the lasting impact it can have on individuals and how a company's response can shape not only the immediate outcome but also leave a lasting imprint on the employees involved. Mike Causey's experience serves as a powerful example of how a company's commitment to its people during times of crisis can resonate throughout an individual's entire career.

Join us for another episode of Talk'n TRM: The Traveller Files, where each tale is a lesson, and every journey is a risk worth exploring.
