Managing Global Mobility in the Coronavirus Crisis

In these unprecedented times our first thoughts turn to the health and wellbeing of our family, friends, colleagues and clients. We do hope that you and your family are keeping healthy and that the same goes for your colleagues and employees.

The global spread of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) has meant that many employers have had to take some difficult decisions, trying to balance the health and safety of their employees with the need to keep the business running. As your Global Mobility provider, we are here to help you deal with the unexpected and fast moving situations that, only a few weeks ago, we would never have dreamt of.

Many of our clients are already describing a variety of changes that they are having to manage, such as:

• Employees returning home earlier than planned
• Assignments being cancelled or postponed
• Employees choosing to or being obliged to work from home in a different country
• A massive reduction in business travel
• Employees being stranded abroad with limited travel options

Mazars Global Mobility teams across the globe are available to guide you through these difficult times and we have put together some “best practice” ideas for things that you can be doing right now.
