The main established unit held in their home country for example in the U.S and the other branches will establish in other countries like China, India, and Iran etc. Where the labor is cheap, technology is less price compared to their home country and plenty of resources available to the head of the organizations will start their activities in those countries too due to the globalization as per the WTO(World Trade Organization).

Generally, the employees will migrate from their home country to another country branch due to the expatriate policy. In any employees must face this and there are some Pros and Cons had by expatriate policy.

Let us discuss the weak and strong points.

Weak Points:

In any employee not interested mentally to move other country and the negative impact may show on quality of work.

The employee migration will take a time to adjust his body and mental conditions in the new place so again the impact will show on work.

The term of migration from 6 months to 1 year and it had the chance to increase. So, it depends upon the decision of management and the commitment given by the employee.

Strong Points:

The employee may learn new things and technology when he/she migrated to another country due to expatriate policy.

In sometimes, the employee and their existing employees sharing the knowledge and it leads to generate new innovative ideas for implementation in the organizations.

There are good benefits to sharing the knowledge of technology among the employees so it helps to improve the production.

The home country of the employee will get benefit by sending the remittances so the countries GDP(Gross Domestic Product) will become strong.

If several migrate employees send the remittances then the home country economy will increase and it leads to getting good FDI’s(Foreign Direct Investments).

The employee once come back to his/her home country then implements new technology in home country which had learned in a foreign country.
