A guide on global pay and benefits, including comprehensive coverage of both expatriate compensation and local-national compensation. Calvin Reynolds illustrates the impact of globalisation on compensation and benefits practices world-wide, strategies for entering the global arena, and the best ways to manage and administer local-national and expatriate programmes. The contributors cover issues such as: the management of compensation and benefits during cross-boarder mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures; the design of reward programmes that consider differing cultures; employment law legal constraints and immigration requirements; specialized incentives for global sales and research development activities; and the application of technology to global human resources management. In addition readers will find country-by-country analyses of compensation and benefits issues and a companion CD-ROM containing sample documents and checklists.
