International wellbeing

Wellbeing support for employees on international assignment

Global support when it’s needed

With increasing numbers of companies investing in sending people abroad to work, there is an increasing need to support employees and their families as they make the transition to life in a new country.

They will be facing unique challenges when relocating, from the stress of moving house to the loss of their social network. 

They will also need to deal with limited access to local resources, language barriers and the challenges of integrating within a new culture and community.

We’ve teamed up with expert providers to offer a range of international wellbeing solutions to provide your employees with all the support they need while working abroad.
