Want to protect your investment
and improve your
expat employee experience?
You can have the most streamlined and cost-efficient program possible, but if the needs of your relocating employees aren’t being met, you’re going to end up with serious engagement and retention issues internally.
That’s why now is such a good time to really examine the experience of your mobile employees and make improvements as needed. The care and support you’re able to provide in a challenging environment will speak volumes to these employees about the type of experience they can expect moving forward with your company.

benefits of a better employee experience
- Your employee's experience directly impacts loyalty, motivation, and overall satisfaction.
- Good support of expat partners correlates with increased assignee job performance.
- By taking first class care of your employees you will create higher performing teams.
- A good employee experience reduces the number of failed assignments and their associated costs.
Highly mobile employees might face health problems but their well-being is also affected by less visible factors such as stress, financial, and work-related issues. Demotivation, family issues and ultimately failed assignments can be a manifestation of these issues. Organisations support their mobile employees with comprehensive reward and relocation packages but sometimes fail to take a holistic approach to employee well-being.

does this sound like you?
- You want to support your globally staff because you know they face different challenges on assignment than at home.
- You understand the importance of supporting your employee's partners and families.
- You offer language and intercultural training but have seen that more is needed to help families truly settle in.
- You're searching for best practise support for assignees and their families.
- There is a global shortage of qualified staff. You want to care for and retain your globally mobile staff now more than ever.
One of the most common complaints we hear from partners is that the companies who are responsible for relocating them expect a great deal of them in the relocation process yet often barely acknowledge their existence.
It is not just moving a job or personal items but moving a life and rebuilding that life in a new location.
