Via Business Travel Europe image: female business traveler standing in an airport while an airplane flies in the background against the sun More Women Than Men Feel Unsafe on Business Trips

Travelling for work as a woman is less safe than travelling as a man, according to 71 per cent of female respondents in a recent global survey of business travellers.

The survey, commissioned by World Travel Protection ahead of International Women’s Day on 8 March, included 2,000 business travellers in the UK, US, Australia and Canada and found that women are more likely to take measures to protect their safety during a business trip than men.

Close to one in three (31 per cent) said they do not travel or go out on their own at night, compared to 18 per cent of men, and almost half (46 per cent) always stay in close touch with family and friends so their whereabouts are known, compared to 36 per cent of men.
