When something goes wrong, your team needs a plan they can follow in the first five minutes

An Incident & Crisis Management Policy from Destination Risk Advisors gives your team clear, pre-agreed protocols for the incidents that matter most — so the worst moment of your operational year isn't also the first time anyone's thought through the response.

What the policy covers

The gap between "we have insurance" and "we have a plan"

Insurance responds after the fact. A crisis management policy determines what happens in the minutes and hours that actually shape the outcome — for the person involved, and for your organization's exposure afterward. Reputational and financial damage from safety incidents in hospitality and travel is well documented: slip-and-fall claims average tens of thousands of dollars, drowning-related settlements regularly exceed a million, and a single serious incident can affect guest trust well beyond the property or program directly involved. A clear, rehearsed policy is one of the most cost-effective risk reductions available to an operator of any size.

Built for hotels, DMCs, tour operators, and travel programs alike

This policy framework is written to apply across hospitality operations, ground-handling and DMC operations, and educational or youth travel programs — anywhere a group of guests, students or travellers is in your care.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from a generic emergency plan template?

Generic templates are written to look comprehensive. This policy is written to be used under pressure — clear classification, clear escalation, and specific protocols for the incident types most likely to occur in hospitality and travel operations specifically.

Can this be combined with a full Safety Management System?

Yes — many clients build both together, or add this policy to strengthen existing safety documentation. It's also available as a standalone document for operators who already have safety fundamentals in place but lack a clear crisis response protocol.
