Expatriates represent an important part of your workforce. If managed effectively, expatriates will generate tremendous benefits for your organisation, including the transfer of cross-border knowledge, leveraging of local investments and provision of career development opportunities for your employees.
To help you meet the challenges of a mobile
workforce we've created this Managing expatriates
minisite which features upcoming events, a library of related
articles along with details of the 'must have' survey releases. Under our How
can we help? section we explain Mercer's three phased approach to
managing your mobile workforce effectively and you can also visit the contact
us page to learn about the key employee mobility contacts in your region.
