Tax

Ahead of The Global Mobility Executive Roundtable…

Global Mobility Pressures

Global Mobility is subject to rapid and frequent change. International HR and Global Mobility teams are consistently being asked to reduce costs; as international business presents an increased need for a mobile and diverse workforce, mobility policies become progressively complex. A good way of addressing this is the open sharing of information between individuals and organisations within the sector. Information sharing encourages connection and collaboration between professionals, which can result in important new findings regarding issues and solutions within the field.

I recently had the opportunity to attend the 2018 Worldwide ERC Global Workforce Symposium, held in Seattle, WA. Many attendees (including myself), were extremely surprised how lucky we were with the lack of rain! The location was excellent and the company even better!

We all know the life and times of an expatriate can be challenging, but one of the biggest hurdles is what to do with taxes?

For Expats, taxes can create some of the biggest problems as a part of the assignment abroad. As with anything, myths are passed from one person to another and sooner or later expats find themselves in trouble. Global Mobility specialists are essential for dispelling these myths and ensuring that expats are able to complete their assignments without a hitch. For those on assignment in the UK, there are some very important aspects of tax that expats need be aware of.
