We have an opportunity for some work in Bahrain. The Foreign Office currently indicates a high risk of terrorism, but does not advise avoidance of travelling to the area.
This situation seems to be arising more often and I therefore feel we should have a policy about when we expect employees to travel. Its all very ad hoc currently.
Does anyone have a policy or guidelines on sending employees to work overseas in countries with potential terrorist threats?
At what point do you draw the line and decide not to send an employee?
What insurance safeguards do you have in place for the employees?

Thank you
