Employee Assignment
When placing employees on an international assignment, it’s critical to remember the support needed for an ongoing positive experience. Worries about home properties, staying connected to the home location work environment, the ongoing need to address country-specific tax issues, and the impact of missing the old location and settling into the new one can be difficult for even the most seasoned expatriate.
Kinetix provides support to navigate these challenges. With property, tax, family, housing, logistics, and destination services delivered through our expert counseling teams, we guide the transferring employee and family, providing peace of mind, and current, local, and helpful resources to make the experience the best one possible.

When setting and utilizing the policy and compliance elements of your expatriate talent management tax strategy, Kinetix and our tax partners can remove the guesswork, and set a plan to keep you and your employees compliant regardless of where the journey takes your people or your organization.
Expatriate Transferees
Expatriate assignments placing employees in foreign locations can complicate setting compensation, establishing tax requirements and equalization policy, and remaining compliant as an organization. Paying employees across borders may require complex pay structures such as split or shadow payrolls, and it can be complex for the employee as well. A foreign employee’s tax obligations can also span much longer than the actual assignment.
Kinetix helps to ensure that you are building a program with a line of sight that includes tax regime changes, payroll intricacies, and compliance wherever you may operate. We begin each client partnership with a thorough evaluation of your foreign employment locations, your mobility and expatriate tax programs, and their associated policy. From there we can either strengthen your existing program, or build a new program, applying best and current practices for the best employee experience and the most effective delivery.
Permanent Transfers Of International Employees
The permanent transfer of international employees requires more than just a permanent transfer relocation policy. It requires support through a network of internal and external partners that include your relocation management company, payroll, internal and external tax, risk, strategy, HR, and finance. Missing any critical component can lead to higher costs, a greater administrative burden, and, at the very worst, loss of key talent.
Kinetix provides guidance and coordination, and is a key central point of communication for your employee mobility program. From short-term temporary assignments, global internships, and extended business travel to expatriate localization and international permanent transfers, our team manages your program, communicates employee needs and addresses challenges for the best possible employee experience.
