This year’s Global Workforce Symposium marked Worldwide ERC’s triumphant return to “Beantown” and, in my opinion, lived up to the billing of #besteverGWS. With the conference in our home city, AIRINC had the opportunity to kick-off the week with a breakfast and duck boat tour for attending clients and mobility professionals.

Understanding Cost of Labor versus Cost of Living assessment: Whether internationally or domestic, there is still the need to get your talent to the right location in the right way, and at the right pay levels. International mobility has additional complications, but domestic mobility continues to trend as a challenge for many organizations and their employees.
As a global mobility professional, does this question sound familiar? Are you more frequently being tasked with managing domestic moves along with your international responsibilities? Although you may think of domestic moves – transfers within the same country – as outside your purview, there are advantages to streamlining international and domestic mobility policies.
Initial costs of renting in England became cheaper last month as the Tenant Fees Act came into effect.
