International Guide to Social Security

This work sheds great insight on the complexities of international security. Recognizing the need for an authoritative text offering a country-by-country summary of the main items of social security regulation in each jurisdiction, Coopers & Lybrand has assembled a group of experts to present the most essential and current information to individuals and multinationals operating abroad. The International Guide to Social Security covers some thirty countries, offering a comprehensive survey of social security regulations worldwide. Each country report provides the reader with a comprehensive overview of the social security regulations which operate within the country, and assesses the costs and risks involved with moving to that particular jurisdiction. In addition, because each country report is styled upon a standard format, the use of the work as a comparative tool is greatly enhanced. The inclusion of many actual cost calculations and scenarios contributes to the book's utility value, as does its detailed table of contents which allows the user to access the Guide quickly and effectively. Audience: Will be of great assistance to every individual dealing with, or interested in, the issues of international employment and transfers, or more generally, in social security regulations. Its practical approach and comparative basis makes it a useful tool for every manager confronted with these issues.
