Expatriation / Repatriation
Expatriation
Preparation is key when any employee is moving abroad to work. For example, understanding how the Norwegian culture and the host country culture communicates and how this can impact the work environment. Helping to anticipate potential challenges will enable a quicker and smoother start and reduce the stress that uncertainties can produce. Support for employees who are leaving Norway is a great investment in a good start.
r2n can offer 1:1 meetings or seminars to prepare the employee who are leaving Norway for work.
Repatriation
The effects of returning home are often underestimated. Adjusting to life in the home country can bring many difficulties for the employee and the family. Changes in the culture, political shifts, friends and family with new interests and connections. The children may not be familiar with the language. This amounts to a reverse culture shock. It can be an emotional challenge but with the right support, r2n can help to make it easier.
r2n can offer 1:1 meetings or seminars with the employee and family to prepare for their return home.
