Area of Science:

  • Occupational Health
  • International Relations
  • Psychology

Background:

  • Diplomatic organizations have legal and moral obligations to protect staff health in high-threat postings (HTPs).
  • Understanding current practices for mental health protection in HTPs is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To survey diplomatic organizations regarding their practical approaches to protecting staff mental health in HTPs.
  • To identify existing policies and informal practices for managing psychosocial risks.

Main Methods:

  • An anonymous online survey was distributed to international diplomatic organizations.
  • The survey focused on organizational policies and practices concerning high-threat postings.

Main Results:

  • A 47% response rate was achieved from 14 organizations.
  • Nearly half of organizations applied the same policies for HTPs and low-threat postings.
  • Informal measures like extra support, preparation, leave, and health assessments were common.

Conclusions:

  • There is a significant lack of consensus in policies and practices for HTP deployment.
  • Formalized, evidence-based guidelines, training, and quality assurance are recommended.
  • Standardized practices would promote more consistent and equitable care for diplomatic staff.
