Continued Resilience Amidst Crisis

Ribbon

At International SOS, our 35 years of experience in managing crises has enabled us to safeguard the future of our clients. The COVID-19 pandemic has driven a fundamental change in our health and security assistance delivery. In the space of eight months, we have increased our TeleConsultation resources by 80% and delivered 70% more security advisory alerts. In turn, we have received five time more calls for employee support and managed over 45,000 COVID-19 related cases.1

Our health and security experts across the globe take a moment to reflect on how the pandemic has not only impacted our own lives and organisation, but also the effect it has had on our clients and the positive changes it will have on our lives in future.

We speak to our health and security experts about their perspectives: Dr Irene Lai, Medical Director, James Wood, Head of Security Services, Dr Rahul Kalia, Medical Director, India and Xuanyi Wang, Travel Risk Specialist.
