Global Mobility

Most businesses today have a mobile workforce and either operate from offices in multiple jurisdictions or are looking to expand globally.

Global Mobility

Overview

Most businesses today have a mobile workforce, operating across multiple jurisdictions, undertaking international assignments, or considering global expansion. Internationally mobile employees range from permanent transfers and short- or long-term assignments to frequent business travel and increasingly, flexible home working arrangements across borders. Every form of mobility brings its own legal, tax and compliance challenges, with significant implications for costs, risk management and senior management time.
