The tourism and hospitality industry is one of the most vulnerable industries to crises. Crises have become more frequent and complex more than ever affecting the industry and other related activities. Hence, it is better to be prepared well to mitigate and minimize the potential effects of these crises, whether it is natural or man-made. This also includes large corporations that are stepping up their requirements in terms of employee safety and data protection. The industry as a whole is challenged to raise safety and security levels  without impacting their day to day operations, or the guests’ experience.
