Travel and human resources managers are no strangers to risk assessments. Whether performed in-house or left to a TMC or security advisor, there is generally some form of evaluation of whether a traveler could be put in danger when taking a business trip.

LGBTQ Risk Profile: Five Years in Review
October 29, 2021 via Crisis24

When examining overall policies and risks factors in countries over the past five years, it is apparent that the threat levels LGBTQ individuals face have remained relatively static though specific threats in some locations have changed.
