Global survey sharpens focus on spouse employment needs2009-01-22
Permits Foundation's recent global survey examined the views of 3300 expatriate spouses and partners of 122 nationalities, currently accompanying international employees working in 117 host countries for over 200 employers in both the private and public sector.
It provides evidence that a lack of spouse or partner employment opportunities adversely affects global mobility of highly skilled
international employees.
A few focused and simple improvements on the part of employers and governments can make a triple win for families, employers and the countries in which they work.
