Expatriate Surveys

Satisfied expats - and partners - are more loyal to the organisation, stay on their assignment longer and are more willing to accept a new assignment. For the organisation this means a higher return in investment.

Expats are valuable employees in an extraordinary situation. To help organisations improving the services for expats, the MonitorGroup performs surveys on a regular basis. We gather information from expats and their partners at the start of the assignment, during their assignment and upon return from the assignment. Questions we ask provide valuable information for HR departments and Transfer Organisations, for:

• improving the quality of the assignment
• optimising the conditions leading to decreasing dropouts and early returns

The MonitorGroup developed the International Assignment Monitor. This is a survey program that contains questions on a broad range of issues, from a pre-departure language course and tax services to schooling, housing and job opportunities on return. The Transfer Service Organization of Philips International uses the program on a yearly basis.

Expatriate Partner Situation
An growing number of organisations realises that for a successful assignment, the partner's circumstances should be optimal. We provide expat partner surveys in order to improve the service level towards expat partners.
