The majority of HR professionals surveyed by Mercer Human Resource Consulting
said pay should be reviewed, while a third thought expatriate employees should
receive local pay – which is often lower – at the end of their contract if they
decide to stay in the host country.
Around one in 10 thought expatriate terms should apply indefinitely and 8
per cent felt local pay should be mandatory at the end of a contract.
