1 International Travel Risk Assessment Guidance Guidance Owner/ Author: Health & Safety Version number: 1.2 EIA date: April 2018 Date of last review: June 2018 Date of next review: June Doc Ref: HS-G-035
2 1.0 Purpose of Guidance 1.1 The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulation (1999) place a duty on Manchester Metropolitan University to undertake a risk assessment, in order to ascertain any risk which may affect the health and safety, of staff or students, before they travel for a work related trip or activity. 1.2 The level of detail in the travel risk assessment should be commensurate with the level of risk in the destination country, the risk created by the nature of the activity being undertaken, and risk factors related to the individual themselves. 1.3 The member of staff managing the travel, for staff or students, should make appropriate checks to ensure that staff and students are not exposed to any unnecessary risk. 1.4 Manchester Metropolitan University has a travel insurance policy for members of staff travelling on University business, and for students travelling in connection with their course or an approved University trip. 2.0 Responsibilities 2.1 The Head of Faculty or Directorate is responsible for ensuring that this guidance is implemented within their area of responsibility. 2.2 The Line Manager or Supervisor arranging travel for their staff or students must ensure that appropriate checks are carried out before travel is approved, and assure themselves that the necessary control measures are in place to manage any risks appropriately. 2.3 Before you begin the travel risk assessment process you must firstly identify the suitability of the destination country to determine if the trip will proceed. This can be done by: Reviewing advice provided by Red24 if you are planning to travel to a high risk destination using password 7228 to register (please see Appendix A for a sample report); Seeking advice from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office Reviewing this information will allow you to consider the key risks associated with crime, transport, health, terrorism and civil unrest to inform your decision on whether to proceed with the trip or not. 2 Doc Ref: HS-G-035
3 2.5 If a decision is made to proceed with the trip a travel risk assessment must be completed (see Appendix B for a sample risk assessment for a high-risk destination highlighting some hazards you may need to consider). 2.6 You may also need to assess additional hazards that are specific to your particular trip/activity to ensure that staff and students are not exposed to any unnecessary risk. 2.7 The risk assessment must be approved by your Line Manager/Head of Department before travel. If the advice from the FCO is to avoid all but essential travel this will require authorisation from the Dean/Pro-Vice Chancellor or other Senior University Manager, together with the University Insurance Office. 2.8 If the travel is authorised by a Senior Manager against FCO advice, contact Head of Security/ Deputy Head of Security who will carry out a bespoke risk assessment. Once this has been completed it should be sent to the University Insurance Office insurance1@mmu.ac.uk. 2.9 When the trip has been approved you must send the following details to the University Insurance Office insurance1@mmu.ac.uk : Name of person travelling; Traveller s Faculty/Department; address of person travelling; Traveller s ManMet ID number; Country to be visited (and cities within the country) Departure airport Date leaving UK Date arriving back in UK Name of person who approved the risk assessment (Line Manager or Head of Department) Frequently Asked Questions What if the trip being arranged is for students? The member of staff organising the student travel should complete the risk assessment. The risk assessment must be approved by the Faculty before travel can be arranged. What if a member of staff is travelling to the same country multiple times? The same risk assessment can be used, but it must be reviewed each time with any additional hazards reassessed before it is approved by the Line Manager/Head of Department. How do I apply for Travel Insurance? By completing the Travel Insurance Application Form. Some travel destinations are not available to select from the list of countries on the online application form because they are classed as high risk. Travel to these destinations must be arranged via the Insurance Officer at 3 Doc Ref: HS-G-035
4 Do I need to complete a risk assessment if I am travelling/arranging travel as part of my research? If you are proposing to travel (or arrange travel for participants) as part of your research, you must complete a travel risk assessment to ensure that all risks are reduced to as low as reasonably practicable, and appropriate control measures are considered and implemented. This is in addition to the risk assessment and insurance checklist you may have uploaded as part of the ethical approval process. Do I need to complete a risk assessment if I am returning to my home country to carry out research? The University is responsible for your safety, wherever you may work or study. Therefore, a travel risk assessment should be completed to ensure risks are managed appropriately. However, control measures put in place to mitigate the risks may differ, as there is familiarity and local knowledge already in place. 4 Doc Ref: HS-G-035
5 Appendix A Crisis Management Assistance Advice - Support - Response The Gambia Overview Overall Risk Rating High Medium High Low Infrastructure High The Gambia is a small West African country almost entirely surrounded by Senegal. The country is a high-risk destination overall; there are few overt security risks besides ongoing political uncertainty. The Gambia is stabilising following the political impasse triggered by the country's December 2016 presidential ballot; however, the country remains susceptible to further instability and civil unrest. There is a medium risk of mainly petty crime, which is considered highest in the capital, Banjul. Clashes between the Senegalese military and Casamance separatist groups, while rare, do carry the potential to spill over into southern regions of the country. The threats of terrorism and kidnapping are low and are unlikely to affect travel. Infrastructure in the country is generally underdeveloped, although standards in Banjul may be at an acceptable level. Political red24's political risk rating for the Gambia is high. The country is a republic, led by President Adama Barrow, and has a 53-member National Assembly. Barrow is supported by a coalition of six political parties, including the United Democratic Party (UDP), which enjoys a majority in Parliament. Other major parties include the Alliance for Patriotic Reorientation and Construction (APRC); National Reconciliation Party (NRP), and the Gambia Democratic Congress (GDC). Barrow came to power following an election in December His transition to the president's office was fraught with challenges as the long-serving former president, Yahya Jammeh, of the APRC, refused to cede power. Following pressure from various international and regional states, including the threat of military action, Jammeh finally left the country in January Over the short- to medium-term, the Gambia will continue to face several challenges, including reordering the security forces and establishing governance structures. Economic challenges also remain a pressing concern. The country remains susceptible to further instability and civil unrest. Corruption The Transparency International Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) for 2016 gave the Gambia a score of 26 and a ranking of 145 out of 176 countries and territories assessed. The CPI rates countries by the perceived levels of corruption in the public sector on a scale of 0 (highly corrupt) to 100 (least corrupt). The ranking indicates that the Gambia has high levels of corruption. For advice on reducing the risk of falling victim to corrupt practices, please click here.
6 General crime red24 rates the risk of crime in the Gambia as medium. The threat is considered elevated in both low-income and major urban areas, particularly in the capital, Banjul. As tourism is a major industry in the country, the government has gone to great measures to ensure a safe and secure travel destination for visitors. As such, the type of crime most likely to affect travellers is petty in nature, including pickpocketing, vehicle break-ins and bag-snatching. The risk of such crime is elevated in crowded market areas, on ferries, along beaches and in tourist resort areas (locally known as Tourism Development Areas), such as the Senegambia tourist area. Cases of young men robbing tourists have been reported. These men, referred to as 'bumsters', are a particular concern along beach areas, often posing as tour guides before demanding money. Violent crimes against foreign nationals are occasionally reported. This include assaults, armed robberies, sexual assaults and burglaries. Furthermore, financial crimes, such as credit card fraud and scams, are prevalent in the Gambia. Additionally, the shared Gambia/Senegal border area is assessed as carrying a risk of banditry. Terrorism The threat from terrorism in Gambia is low. There are no known terrorist groups operating in the country and there are no recognised threats stemming from any regional or international terrorist groups. Nonetheless, clients should be aware of the global risk of indiscriminate terrorist attacks; these could be carried out in public areas, including those frequented by expatriates and foreign nationals. Civil unrest Demonstrations in the Gambia over the past two decades have been rare due to the government's hardline stance against any form of protest action; however, an increase in anti-government protests and demonstrations in the opposition strongholds of Brikama and Bassa preceded the December 2016 presidential elections. The liberalisation of the political sphere is likely to result in an increase in socio-economically motivated demonstrations through In this regard, it should be noted that civil unrest can occur without warning; this is particularly true in Banjul due to its status as the capital. Conflicts red24's conflict risk rating for the Gambia is medium. While this threat has traditionally been low, the troubled political transition period in December 2016 and January 2017 raised the possibility of foreign military intervention. This risk has decreased since the transition (see political section); however, the rating will remain medium until stability is restored. Natural hazards The Gambia has a subtropical climate, with distinct cool and hot seasons. The rainy season stretches from June to September, and flooding is common during this period, especially in the coastal areas and regions near the Gambia River. Some roads may become impassable. Travellers should monitor regional weather forecasts and plan accordingly. The country experiences high temperatures (averaging approximately 30C to 40C) from May to November. Precautions should be taken against heat stroke and exhaustion. Entering the country Passport, visa, vaccination and other entry requirements for the Gambia are subject to change with little to no notice. Clients are advised to consult their nearest Gambian diplomatic representation, prior to travel, for further information. Air travel Banjul International Airport is located near the capital, Banjul. There are no domestic flights from Banjul to secondary cities. Taxis to Banjul and Serrekunda are available and travelling time is approximately 30 minutes; however, travellers should consider using transport pre-arranged by a trusted local contact or their host or hotel, for safety and security reasons. Amenities at the airport include banks, a bureau de change, restaurants, a post office, a tourist information desk and car hire facilities. The airport also provides a well-secured car park area. A compulsory Airport
7 Development Fee of 20 Euros must be paid on exiting the country. Travellers should take note of international agencies' lists of blacklisted airlines, many of which operate in the immediate region. Getting around Road infrastructure is limited throughout the Gambia. Outside of Banjul, there are few road signs, limited paved roads and gas stations, and little street lighting. Some roads may become impassable during the rainy season, which stretches from June to October. Many cars in the country are in a poor condition, compounding the danger of driving. In the Banjul area, there are only a few traffic lights, but more are being installed. Police roadblocks are frequent throughout the country; when stopped, visitors should present the requested documents and submit to a vehicle search. Vehicle rental There are several car rental companies in Banjul. Information on car rentals can be obtained from Yundum International Airport. When renting a vehicle, visitors must possess an international driving permit (IDP) or a United Kingdom driver's licence. Due to the varying road conditions in the country, a four-wheel drive vehicle is the recommended rental car. Taxi The standard of taxi services in the country varies. Many vehicles are poorly maintained and pose a safety risk. Taxis ordered through a hotel or the airport should be considered over those hailed from the street. Water transport Vehicle and passenger ferries depart at least once every hour between the commercial port at Banjul and the city itself. The main crossing point is at the river mouth at Barra. There are numerous other points of departure at which visitors can use boats to cross the River Gambia. In addition, tour operators offer trips along the river. Boat accidents on the River Gambia have occurred in the past. Travellers making use of water transport should take care not to board an overcrowded vessel and to use only reputable ferry companies. Infrastructure Transport infrastructure in the Gambia is poor. Villages outside of the capital, Banjul, are difficult to reach, despite the government's investment in new road systems. Power cuts and running water shortages are common in the rural areas. Major towns in the country have internet access and mobile phone coverage is good in and around Banjul; however, mobile phone services in most other towns are unreliable or non-existent. Money Currency The official currency of the Gambia is the Gambian dalasi (GMD). The GMD is divided into 100 bututs. Notes are in denominations of 100, 50, 25, 10 and 5 dalasis. Coins are in denominations of 1 dalasi and 50, 25, 10, 5 and 1 bututs. Foreign exchange Foreign exchange facilities are available at Banjul International Airport. Banking facilities are available in the city of Banjul and the urban centres of Serrekunda, Bakau, Fajara and Kololi. In addition, bureaux de change facilities are available at some major hotels; however, commission charges tend to be high. Traveller's cheques, with the exception of those issued by American Express, are generally not accepted in the Gambia. ATMs ATM services are located in major urban centres. In general, facilities are found within banks, shopping malls, certain fuel stations, and at hotels. However, due to the threat of financial fraud, clients using ATM services in the country should limit all transactions to ATM machines located with banking and/or hotel facilities. Credit cards Due to its status as cash economy, the use of credit cards is generally restricted to hotels, high-end restaurants and airline offices. Tipping Tipping is not compulsory, although it is customary in hotels and restaurants to offer a gratuity for good service.
8 Banking hours In Banjul, banking hours are between 08:00 and 13:00 and from 16:00 to 18:00 from Mondays to Thursdays. On Fridays, banks are open in the capital from between 08:00 and 11:00. In other cities, banks generally operate between 08:00 and 12:00 and re-open from 16:00 to 18:00 on weekdays. On Saturdays, banks in Banjul are generally closed while facilities elsewhere in the country operate from 08:00 to 13:00. Business Hours Business hours are generally from 08:00 to 13:30, from Mondays to Thursdays. On Fridays, banks are open between 08:00 and 11:00. General The Gambia is a predominantly Muslim country with a small Christian minority. Travellers should act and dress modestly and respect local cultural and religious sensibilities. English is the official language, used as the primary language of business, bureaucracy and diplomacy, while Mandingo, Fulu and Wolof are also widely spoken. Visitors are advised to respect local, cultural and religious sensibilities, particularly in rural areas, near religious sites and during Islamic holy periods, such as Ramadan. During Ramadan, Muslims are required to abstain from food, drink, tobacco and sexual activity from dawn to dusk for the duration of the month. Non-Muslim travellers are advised to respect religious traditions and customs such as Ramadan. Note that homosexuality is illegal. Attitudes towards LGBT travellers among the local populace can also be largely negative. Business etitquette Appointments should be made in advance and reconfirmed 24 to 48 hours before the start. Seek to avoid scheduling meetings during Ramadan, on Fridays between 11:15 and 15:00 (due to prayers) and on other religious holidays to avoid disruptions. While punctuality may not be honoured by one's business partner, it is best to be on time for meetings. Handshakes with the right hand are the common method for members of the same sex. Follow the lead of your host if you are uncertain. Men greeting women should wait for the woman to extend her hand first or just bow their head in greeting. Greetings may be accompanied by lengthy small talk about the health of family or related matters. It is common for one's hand to be held for a length period during this time. Members of the same sex may frequently touch one another during discussions. Not greeting a person may be considered highly offensive. Multiple greetings on the same day, at different occasions, are common. The dress code is important; being well groomed and conservatively dressed is preferable. This is particularly true for women, who should ensure dresses cover the knees and shoulders. Avoiding sustained eye contact is a sign of respect, but is only necessary when speaking to someone of greater authority. Deference should be shown the eldest or most senior person (in rank) in a room. One's business card should have a French translation on one side. If receiving a card, ensure you study it before storing it. Business negotiations may be lengthy, particularly if there is a contentious point to be discussed. This point may be avoided through conversations that dodge the issue. Avoid putting pressure on Gambian business partners to close the deal, particularly if there is a contentious point. Health infrastructure Medical facilities are limited in the Gambia, particularly outside Banjul. Where available, medical facilities are generally understaffed, poorly maintained and lacking basic medical supplies. English-speaking services are, however, available in the country. Visitors are advised that most doctors and medical facilities will expect an upfront cash payment before rendering any medical assistance, whether travellers have health insurance or not. Emergency medical services are limited and severe medical problems will require medical evacuation to another country. Pharmacies are also extremely limited in the country. Pre-travel recommendations The following vaccinations and preventative medicines are recommended or required if travelling to the Gambia:
9 Hepatitis A Hepatitis B Malaria Meningitis Rabies Typhoid Yellow fever (recommended; required for travellers arriving from a country where yellow fever is present) It is also important to ensure that routine vaccinations are up to date for diseases such as influenza, chickenpox (or varicella), measles, mumps, rubella, diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus. Travellers are advised to visit a doctor or clinic that specialises in travel-related medicine at least four to six weeks prior to their intended departure. This should allow the necessary time for any vaccinations prescribed by the doctor to take effect. If travel is to be undertaken in less than four weeks, a visit to a medical professional is still recommended. Comprehensive medical insurance, including provision for medical repatriation or evacuation, is strongly recommended. Travellers are also advised to take an appropriate supply of any prescription medication; this should be accompanied by a written doctor's instruction, explaining the need for the medication and justifying the quantities required. Significant diseases The following are some of the more significant diseases that might affect travellers to the country: Malaria is a life-threatening parasitic disease transmitted by mosquitoes. Malaria is endemic throughout the Gambia, with the transmission period occurring all year round. Meningococcal meningitis is an extremely dangerous infection of the fluid and tissues surrounding the brain and spinal cord. Meningitis is considered to be prevalent throughout the Gambia, with outbreaks most commonly reported during the dry season (November to May). Yellow fever is a mosquito-borne disease transmitted by the bites of the Aedes mosquito. The disease is believed to be prevalent in the country's Upper River division, with outbreaks most frequently reported during the rainy season (June to October). Diarrhoea is common among travellers and can be caused by bacteria, viruses or parasites. One of the most common causes is a bacterium known as E.coli, which is transmitted by ingesting contaminated food and liquids. Food and water safety Tap water in the Gambia is generally not safe to drink; travellers are advised to consume only sterilised or bottled water. This applies to water used for brushing teeth, making ice or washing food. In addition, it is not recommended to bathe or swim in bodies of water. Pasteurised milk can normally be found in major cities, hotels and resorts. Unpasteurised milk should be boiled before consumption, or powdered or tinned milk should be used as an alternative. Fruits and vegetables should only be consumed if they have been peeled or cooked. Uncooked meat and fish should not be consumed. Food from street vendors should also be avoided, as this carries a higher risk of causing illness. Emergency response The number for an ambulance and fire services is 118 (Banjul only). Emergency response is limited in the Gambia, with services generally inefficient and unreliable, particularly outside Banjul.
