It is now more important than ever for companies to be connected with the global markets. This is why many employers are choosing to send their employees temporarily or permanently overseas. An expatriate is defined as someone who is placed either permanently or temporarily outside of their native country. These employees are not only faced with experiencing culture shock and life adjustments but these employees also need special insurance coverage while they are travelling internationally for the company. This is because while employees are travelling internationally they do not have the security of Canada’s health care system. Getting sick or being involved in an accident can generate extremely high medical fees. It is important when considering group insurance benefits that those who are travelling for the company are integrated.
