Global Workforce Management

The challenge

Multinational companies face significant challenges in managing effectively the increasing number of employees who travel between markets. These include:

• Misalignment of global mobility programme with core business and talent strategies
• Inability to assess the effectiveness of their mobility programme through data and insights
• Poor use of technology solutions to manage their mobile workforce

What we hear from our clients:

• Compliance - “Are all our moves compliant? What about our business travellers and commuters?” / “We have a lot of back-to-back assignments – how do I assess whether a GEC would be right for us?”
• Operations - “We are struggling with the many different country payrolls, and are regularly correcting mistakes.”
• Strategy - “How can I improve the link between Global Mobility and Talent?” / “How do I manage assignee wellbeing while they are on assignment?”
