International job assignment
Companies around the world frequently send some of their organizational staff abroad to work with affiliates for various purposes. Employees may be sent to further their education and develop their organizational performance and management skills. In most cases, employees are sent abroad to acquire higher experiences in international trade in their respective companies. When international job assignments are expected to last for longer periods, the employeeâs families may need to accompany them. Basically, sending employees for international job assignments is an investment that an organization should plan and prepare to undertake for it to be successful and can be done through training, handling reparation and compensation planning.
Training
A fundamental aspect of successful international job assignment is to provide training to the target employees. In this case the target employees are the accountant, manager and an engineer. This provides them with an opportunity to know what they should anticipate in the new location. An effective training for employees should be rigor implying thorough. For long term employee relocation, the training should be comprehensive as oppose to short term relocations on job assignments. In cases when the employee has to fully relocate together with his or her family an even greater rigorous training is imperative (Rosenbusch, Cerny II & Earnest, 2015). Training may be conducted by use of videos showing the culture of the host country, lectures on trade and organizational operations in the host nation. For even longer assignments, intensive practical and empirical training including direct interactions with people from the host country may be important for both the employee and his or her family. According to studies, international assignments are more successful when families of the target employees are included in training and in consultation (DeNisi & Sonesh, 2016). Employees on international job assignments may go through three major types of training:
Documentary training is like a classroom learning session in which the employees are taught the cultural differences between them and the people from the host nation. In this kind of training, the differences are closely examined because they can be hindrance to successful job assignments in the target location. Cultural differences can easily trigger misunderstanding and conflicts. Such aspects that differ with culture include greetings, gender interactions as well as gift issuance which are common human relations. For instance the manager, accountant and engineer would be made aware about how valuable punctuality .

1. Dandenong the Focus of WorkSafe Inspections
Attention Dandenong employers, WorkSafe back to work inspectors will be focussing on your
area in a safety inspection initiative this month. Dandenong has been identified as one of the
regions where workplace health and safety is an area of concern, with approximately 8360
injuries reported over the last 5 years. The costs have run into the range of $197 million in
medical bills, wages and other expenses.
According to WorkSafe employers need to recognise their role in the return of injured workers
to work. But employers need not fear, the aim of the initiative is to provide guidance and
education to employers so that they can help ease workers back into the work process after
injury.
According to their website WorkSafe had this to say:
Return to Work Inspectors will be visiting employers in Dandenong over the next month
to ensure they are meeting their return to work obligations for injured workers.
Workplaces where workers have suffered an injury and have been unable to return to
work will be the primary focus for inspectors as part of the visits.
WorkSafeâs Return to Work Director, Ross Jones, said employers played a key role in
helping injured workers get back to safe work.
âWe know businesses are faced with a range of competing demands but itâs essential
workplaces are addressing their legal obligations,â he said.
âHelping injured workers return to work in a safe and sustainable way can be a complex
process so our inspectorsâ role is to provide guidance and advice to employers as well
as talk them through possible options.â
âWe want employers to do all they can to maximise an injured workerâs chance of
getting back to work, whether it be to their original job or on modified or alternative
duties.â
âIn many cases, you do not need to be 100% recovered to return to work, in fact, getting
back to work is an important part of the rehabilitation process.â
Almost 8360 injuries in the Greater Dandenong region were reported to WorkSafe over
the last five years, costing employers more than $197-million in medical costs, wages
and other expenses.
The visits come as WorkSafe plan to host a free Return to Work Co-ordinator workshop
in Dandenong later this month to help those dealing with injured workers.
1/3
2. Those who attend the workshop on 26 July will hear from a panel of return to work
experts who will talk through how to overcome barriers in order to achieve a successful
outcome.
âAttending RTW Coordinator workshops and events help employers to improve their
return to work outcomes and lower their premiums,â Mr Jones said.
âWe know that many have walked away with a more confident understanding of their
obligations and what options they have to help get an injured worker back to work.â
The event will be held from 9.30am to 11.30am at Punthill, Dandenong, 157-163
Lonsdale Street, Dandenong.
Employers are encouraged to register to the event by clicking on the âworkshops and
events sectionâ at: www.worksafe.vic.gov.au/rtw
For more information on the event, please contact WorkSafeâs RTW Division on 9940
4283 or email: rtw_networks@worksafe.vic.gov.au

The complexity of the return to work process means that employers should welcome any advice
or assistance offered to them in order to know their obligations and meet them. Some of these
include making plans for the workers return by obtaining the relevant information regarding the
workers physical capabilities and what support and aids needs to be provided to the worker in
order for him/her to successfully and safely perform their duties. Make these arrangements
available to the worker involved and monitor his/her progress once theyâve resumed their
duties.
Provide the injured worker with suitable employment for at least 52 weeks if they are not able to
work or if they have returned to normal working activities. It also involves appointing a Return to
Work Coordinator who has an appropriate level of seniority. Employers need to make
information about return to work available to all workers. For host companies, they should
cooperate with the labour hire employerâs efforts to meet their return to work obligations and
facilitate the workerâs return to work as much as possible.
For more information employers can visit the WorkSafe site directly www.WorkSafe.vic.gov.au
