Reimbursement for per diem, including deductions for meals provided, should be calculated as shown in the links under Accounting website. Website links are also available in the Travel Website under BSS.
Per diem amounts must be reduced to reflect meals that are provided during conference attendance. Reductions in per diem need to be communicated to the voucher preparer prior to seeking reimbursement.
The key to safe traveling in any area is situational awareness. Distractions because of
luggage, children, hotel personnel, strangers, etc. can put you at risk. Know your
surroundings and stay in control of every situation. Examine some things you can do to make
your travel safe.
Never list your home address on the luggage tag. If on business, put the company's address
on the tag. Use covered luggage tags as well.
Stay with your luggage until the luggage is checked. If you must put your bag down, keep
one foot on the handle.
Carry important papers with you; NEVER check anything that you simply cannot afford to
lose. Photocopy your passport, driver's license and credit cards.
