Taking Charge of Duty of Care? HR should Take the Lead

Corporate safety and security are bigger issues than ever. Organizations of all sizes are focusing more and more on how to best protect their personnel. But what happens when everyone isn’t in the same location?

These are the questions organizations often answer with pride but according to SAP Concur customer survey, 53% of organizations don’t nave (or don’t know if they have) the resources to assist and extract employees in an emergency and 25% of organizations don’t store or regulatory update employee contact information.
