Life Abroad
With SOS Life Abroad, employees seconded abroad and their families have the best prospects of a safe stay abroad. SOS helps companies and their employees prepare for life abroad.
Without the right advice before departure or access to the necessary help during a period abroad, families and companies risk being faced with unpleasant situations and major costs as a result. This could result in an employee seconded abroad having to return home earlier than planned.
Living abroad, in health and safety
When SOS helps families relocating abroad, one of the things we provide advice on is health. Here, we take account of the family's individual needs based on current local conditions. In addition, we provide information on the necessary vaccinations prior to travel.
SOS also offers up-to-date information on political and cultural matters, as well as local issues pertaining to risks and health.
If you do need treatment during your time abroad, SOS has a list of nearby treatment centres and can recommend the best ones.
Living abroad can be demanding and its effects on a family are sometimes unexpected. Here, advice and sessions with an expert psychologist prior to or during secondment abroad can be very useful. SOS Life Abroad also offers options here.
