Mint Business Travel has published a new mobile app which helps employers care for their staff when travelling abroad.

The Burnley business designed Mint Trips, available on Android and Apple phones, to help companies to fulfil their legal and moral duty of care for their staff.

The app handles itinerary management, logs expenses, checks visa requirements and even identifies local points of interest.

Crucially, the app also helps businesses to take a strategic approach to travel risk management.

Through the app employers can always trace their staff and those overseas have multiple resources to call upon, from restaurant recommendations to updates on current FCO advice and alerts of flight delays.

The app also enables the user to arrange taxis, buses, transfers, rail travel and hotel bookings and includes a journal facility, where users can document their experiences and upload them each day via social media.

Steve Hall, founder of Mint, says: “There is a growing burden placed on employers to constantly review health and safety policies for staff who travel and this new app offers a really convenient way to help them mitigate risk.

"In addition, the app provides 24/7 support to those travelling as they can contact us for advice through the chat facility at any time. This is immensely reassuring and means that business travellers can fully concentrate on the job in hand, rather than worrying about their travel arrangements.” Based at Empire Business Park, Mint Business Travel is a sister company of Mint Holidays, which Steve successfully launched last year to provide luxury and long-haul holidays to the general public.
