International assignees - life, career, integration
A successful expatriation for international assignees
International assignees, seconded employees, local or local+ contracts, international volunteer work, commuters, international mobility employees – all are covered by a wide range of statutes. But behind these administration denominations, the needs are the same: preparation for departure for each family member, intercultural integration, career guidance, and preparation for the return right from the start.
With 20 years of experience, Expat Communication is the expert in supporting expat employees.

Challenges expats face for the return home
Key statistic: 70%
According to 70% of expatriates, their return from expatriation was either “difficult” or “very difficult.”
Learn more in our Barometer report on the return home.
Every year, the Expat Communication barometer reveals that the return is the most challenging period of expatriation.
Expats are faced with lonliness and/or feeling misunderstood; they find it hard to explain or give value to their time abroad, and may even experience a drop in their quality of living. The challenges when returning home are unanimously recognized and cited.
However, this is the step for which companies often provide the least amount of support.
As an expat states very candidly,
“When you’re preparing for your arrival abroad, someone carries your suitcase for you; when coming home they let the door slam in your face.”
Today, we have the resources to ease this step and prevent the challenges a badly handled return from expatriation causes for the company and the employee.
