The most comprehensive and reliable resource for managing your global workforce - 2008/2009 edition available now
 

Understand worldwide benefits and employment guidelines across the world

To design effective employment and benefits guidelines for your employees, you need quick access to current, reliable information on worldwide employment conditions, statutory employee benefits and typical employer benefit practices. Because the laws and regulations governing these benefits change constantly, tracking such information can be time consuming and expensive.

Mercer’s Worldwide Benefits and Employment Guidelines (WBEG) offers the full spectrum of global information on benefits guidelines at your fingertips. With its extensive market practice information, this report is an authoritative source on mandatory and private benefit practices, as well as statutory regulations around the world.

Offering unparalleled quality and depth of data and analysis, and covering more than 65 countries, the 2008/2009 edition of WBEG is available in five regional volumes providing concise, reliable and easy-to-use information for the major economic regions of the world – Americas, Asia, Central & Eastern Europe, Western Europe, and Middle East & Africa. Buyers also receive access to WBEG online and its comparators.

As part of our continual efforts to meet – and exceed – our users' needs, we relied on a global network of senior Mercer experts in more than 60 countries to produce this year's WBEG report. These experts peer reviewed the content not only in their home countries but also regionally and globally.
