International HR

Ask yourself…

• Do you have an integrated policy supporting a domestic and international workforce?
• Do you differentiate between a business trip, short-term assignment and full-blown expatriate period overseas?
• Do you have a coordinated approach to managing an international workforce?
• How do you deal with immigration, tax and social security compliance?
• Are your expatriates a cost or an investment?
• Do they have the right support whilst overseas?
• How do you pay them?
• How do you deal with appraisals, promotion, bonuses and the return?
• How do you manage the returning expatriate

Entering into transactions with other countries is the first step to developing an international business. As your business volumes, profitability and cultural awareness develops it would be perfectly natural for overseas business trips to increase in frequency to the point where a prolonged stay becomes a necessity.

At HR Solutions, we are experienced at putting policies together that ensure a level playing field for your employees whilst seconded overseas and during the return preparation, ensuring they do not feel “out of sight out of mind”.
