Global and Mobile: Employing an International Workforce
Thursday, January 27 06:00 AM BST to 06:00 AM BST
Employers operating outside the U.S. face increasing challenges as countries around the world tighten employment and immigration laws governing third-country nationals who are conducting business and working within their borders. We will address the myriad laws and policies companies should consider to avoid costly pitfalls with global assignments and business trips. We will also offer best practices to address the top ten global employment and immigration issues, including:
Starting operations in a new country
Business trips - avoiding the "Accidental Ex-Pat" syndrome
Ex-Pat employment contracts
Visas and work permits
Quota restrictions
Employee leasing and other global employment arrangements
Tax and benefits issues
Corporate compliance with increasingly restrictive laws
Corporate restructuring and global assignments
Terminating employment abroad
