South Africa Open Discussion: When Mobility Becomes Crisis Management

Duty of care, emergency decision‑making and assignee wellbeing under pressure.

This South Africa Open Discussion examines how organisations respond when global mobility becomes a crisis function rather than a planned process.

Using a real‑world emergency evacuation scenario, the session explores the complex realities faced by Global Mobility, Risk Management, RMCs and DSP partners when employees and their families must relocate at speed, with limited information and high emotional impact.

The discussion will consider:

  • How duty of care obligations interact with existing mobility policies
  • The emotional and practical impact of emergency relocations on families
  • Schooling, housing and shipment challenges in South Africa
  • Compensation disputes and policy interpretation following crisis moves
  • Where accountability sits across Global Mobility, Risk, K2 and DSP partners

This session is designed for senior Global Mobility, HR and Risk professionals looking to stress‑test their crisis frameworks and learn from real experience.
