Advice regarding In Amenas Algeria
London
International SOS, the world's leading medical and security services company, and Control Risks, the world's leading global risk consultancy firm are providing advice and emergency assistance to clients who have travellers, expatriates and employees in Algeria.
Following incidents involving expatriate workers in In Amenas, Algeria, a crisis management team established at the International SOS' Paris Assistance Centre together with on-the-ground Incident Management Teams in Algeria are working closely with clients to provide advice and assistance to members.
As the security situation remains fluid, International SOS and Control Risks advise travel should be deferred to Southern oil-producing regions in Algeria. For other areas in the country, only essential travel should take place with robust journey planning and management.
Clients and members who would like support are encouraged to call one of International SOS' 27 assistance centers for assistance. Up-to-date information, advice, and analysis are available via the International SOS membership website (https://www.internationalsos.com/) within the Travel Security Online section.
