In today's global economy, it is no longer uncommon for companies to send employees across borders on international assignments, whether it be as part of short-term business travel or long-term expatriate programs. Such transfers, however, are fraught with legal landmines that, if not managed, can adversely impact employers, thwart the company's business needs, and affect the bottom line.

In-house counsel and human resource representatives must understand the array of issues that arise in any cross-border assignment, including knowing what questions to ask, what obstacles to anticipate, and strategies necessary to maneuver the often conflicting interests between business, employment, immigration, and tax objectives. This Webinar will address:

  • Managing the business' expectations and the inherent conflicts in multi-national arenas
  • Identifying the most common structures used to place employees in foreign countries
  • Anticipating immigration obstacles and strategies
  • Understanding the primary employment risks and solutions
  • Considering the impact of multi-national taxation

Through the lens of real world examples, this webinar will navigate these issues, including the "do's" the "don'ts" and the best practices for ensuring a smooth and effective international transfer.
