Planes, trains & automobiles | As travel chaos continues, how does HR handle stranded staff?

Cancelled flights, rail strikes and a fuel cost crisis have combined to create a headache for HR around employees struggling to get to work.

Reports of holidaymakers being stranded abroad due to cancelled return flights have been increasing in recent weeks, as have tales of workers losing income as a result.

For example, BBC Radio recently spoke to Rob Salmon, whose cancelled flights home from Portugal had left him stuck in the country for several days – time in which he should have returned to work.

But it’s not just employees returning from holidays that HR needs to be thinking about – but your workforce’s everyday commute could be thrown into chaos too.
