KDS poll finds lack of corporate communication over flu epidemic

Less than a third of companies have formally communicated with their employees about travel in light of the swine flu epidemic, according to a snap poll by KDS.

Only 31% of the 163 executives and business travellers polled by the online travel and expense management systems company said their companies had communicated with their staff about the epidemic.

Some 46% of respondents said their companies were looking at cancelling their Mexican trips, while 15% said they were considering avoiding the US, where cases of the illness have been reported in several cities.
