Global Mobility Process  



GLOBAL MOBILITY AT SYENSQO

Moving internationally is fundamental for business expansion! It offers the opportunity to go global and become more competitive.

It also gives the employee a career boost, as it helps developing an international mindset.

An assignment abroad is a Syensqo decision led by a business and talent strategy.

Once an international move is confirmed, a true journey begins with its own challenges: Syensqo is there to support you during the entire process and to provide the appropriate standard of services to all assignees among the Group.

The Global Mobility Team, within SBS, will support this journey, throughout the different stages, managing providers and services, ensuring a smooth process and journey.

Please check below our Global Mobility presentation, with specific information about the team and the services we provide.

GLOBAL MOBILITY/ASSIGNMENT POLICIES

Please take a look below to the Syensqo Global Mobility Policies where you can check the details for each policy and for what they are used for.
Those policies are meant to be followed and exceptions are to be accepted in very limited cases, with very strong business reasons.

THE PROCESS FOR WHEN YOU NEED AN INTERNATIONAL MOVE

All moves must be communicated to the Global Mobility team (GM) via a Move Initiation form (MIF) submission. This includes New Assignments, Permanent Transfers, Extensions, Repatriations, and Localisations.


The current process to follow is:

  • For LTA and STA above 6 months, the manager with the support of the Strategic Business Partner (SBP) must submit a business case to support the need for the assignment (not applicable for Permanent Transfers and STA of less than 6 months).
  • After the approval of the business case, a Move Initiation Form must be submitted to initiate the services. The form can be submitted by the SBP, HR, or the manager.
  • The MIF triggers the Global Mobility Team analysis
  • The Global Mobility Team requests the Cost Estimation to the provider, to be approved by the business
  • After the Cost Estimation is approved, Global Mobility Team requests the Assignment Package to the provider, to be presented to the employee
  • If all is approved and accepted by the business and employee, Global Mobility Team triggers all vendors and services and all relevant actors will be involved (employee, manager, external providers).
  • To ensure that the new profile has the proper authorizations, the manager must submit the Internal Move / Employee status change - IT Request. Submitting this request should not happen before immigration is concluded
  • If the employee is/will be a manager, the reporting relationships must be updated accordingly. An Organization Chart & Personal Data request must be created so that the Org Charts are fully aligned.

For additional questions regarding the policies, reach out to the Global Mobility team directly.
