Organizing An Internal Team For Immigration And Mobility

As the population of foreign national employees continues to grow for many organizations, there is an increasing emphasis on the role played by HR and mobility teams.

Managing the immigration needs of an organization can be a time-consuming responsibility for HR and mobility teams. As such, dedicating new or current HR and mobility team members to this function can help organizations streamline the growing responsibilities driven by employment-based immigration.

For some organizations, immigration and mobility are a function of the HR or legal team. For others, there is a dedicated immigration or mobility team tasked with the numerous responsibilities associated with managing and retaining foreign talent in the U.S. and globally. Organizations with demanding immigration and mobility needs may even bring in one or multiple HR professionals with certified Global Mobility Specialist (GMS) credentials to manage their program.
