1/30/24, 4:01 PM PRESSR: International SOS reinforces commitment to elevating global health and safety standards — TradingView News
Dr Olivier LO said: “At International SOS, our commitment to shaping the

global health landscape is unwavering. As we navigate the complex
challenges of the modern world, our focus on strategic innovation remains at

the core of our mission. In prioritising employee wellbeing, we are not just

safeguarding individuals; we are empowering organisations to thrive. Our

dedication extends beyond borders, ensuring that businesses, governments,

and institutions can navigate the path to growth and sustainability with

confidence.”

Highlighting the impact of regional conflicts and disease outbreaks,

International SOS stated that over 2,000 assistance cases are attributed to

the Ukraine crisis, and more than 100 alerts are linked to ‘Mpox’. The

organisation further asserted that it has observed a notable increase in

climate-related alerts, with a staggering 80% rise in medical alerts, a 30%

increase in security alerts, and a fourfold rise in climate-related special
advisories during 2023. These special advisories entail specific warnings or

guidelines issued by agencies and specialised organisations like International

SOS, pertaining to the impact of climate change on health, security, and

business operations.

In response to these evolving challenges, International SOS said that it will

continue to pioneer innovative approaches to ensure employee well-being in
challenging environments. A key focus has been the accelerated expansion of

TeleHealth services to 35 countries, providing essential healthcare services

remotely. The recently launched ‘SelfService’ TeleConsultation solutions

further demonstrate the organisation's commitment to accessible and quality

care on a global scale. These efforts align with an environmentally conscious

mindset, reducing unnecessary travel and associated environmental impacts.

International SOS’s customised health and security consulting for workforce
resilience has yielded positive outcomes for organisations worldwide. By

partnering with International SOS, businesses have experienced a reduction in

strain on workforces, decreased sickness-related costs, and generated

significant savings.
