What are the plus elements in your local-plus package?

Local-Plus Packages are widely used in Hong Kong, but due to high cost of living in HK, there are frequent questions on what and how much the ‘plus’ benefits should be.

We recently published a case study on a housing allowance benchmark project for an APAC-based conglomerate, who wanted to establish market-competitive and cost-effective housing guidelines for its Local-Plus Program.
