Following the UK Government’s recent relaxation of travel rules, our Procurement team has published an updated policy on staff travel during 2021-22.

The new policy states that staff should travel in the UK and abroad only where absolutely necessary and following detailed risk assessment and latest FCDO guidance.

Travel requests will have to be approved by your line manager or director. The expectation is that travel will be much lower in the financial year 2021-22 than in pre-pandemic years.

The new policy includes detailed information on what you need to take into account before you travel including:

• Your health, safety and wellbeing
• Insurance cover
• Financial implications
• Travel/border/visa requirements
