Witht the increasing emphasis on New Zealand exporting companies having a presence in the world and particularly in their export markets, it is highly likely that employees of those companies will be asked to work overseas. This may be part of setting up and staffing an office in a new marekt, or it may be part of a joint venture or offshore manufacturing plant.
The Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) in the UK has developed a resource called "International Mobility" which, while it reflects its UK origins and audience, is useful in any of these situations where staff might move from home to a new export market to work.
It includes a series of checklists under the headings:
- Preparation and planning
- Remuneration, benefits and allowances
- Guarantees of success
Such a resource is recommended if your company is in this situation and especially if you don't have an HR department. For further information about this resource contact: library@export.ac.nz
