Dubai: International SOS, the world's leading health and security risk services company, has
reaffirmed its dedication to elevating global health and safety standards through its comprehensive

and holistic approach to employee wellbeing. This commitment gains heightened significance in the
face of an increased demand for its health and security risk services, driven by factors such as
regional conflicts, climate change and disease outbreaks.

As international business travel rebounds to near pre-COVID levels, the organisation noted a more

emphasised the interconnected nature of health issues across borders. This holds significance as it
coincides with businesses embracing learnings from the COVID-19 pandemic and adapting their

health strategies to address the negative impacts of climate change.
