The brief

The Met Office Travel Policy is in place to ensure all business travel takes place in a safe, sustainable and cost effective manner. .

The Travel Policy sets out the requirements for all staff and contractors to consider the necessity of their travel, to plan-ahead, and to carry out all pre-travel checks such as seeking approval, fitness to travel and confirmation of a communications plan.

The safety of our staff whilst travelling on business is of paramount importance.

Following the Travel Policy helps to ensure all our people can be located and contacted in the event of an emergency.

Recognised as world leaders in weather and climate science and its application for people’s protection, prosperity and well-being, we are actively involved in several international programmes, projects and initiatives, requiring our staff to travel globally on an almost daily basis.

Travel is essential to the Met Office as it allows us as a business to build and maintain strong relationships with our customers, stakeholders and collaboration partners.

For our staff to be appropriately prepared and protected before they travel in how to deal with any challenges they may face whilst abroad, and the Met Office recognising that it has a moral and legal duty of care for its staff, the Met Office requires an International Travel Training programme.
