Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Expatriates (employees from the home country of the multinational organization) and third-country nationals (employees from a country other than the home country or the country of assignment) have to be relocated and undergo training to work effectively in a new country. Host-country nationals (employees from the country of assignment) would not need to be relocated, but they still might need training to work effectively in the multinational organization. Option A is incorrect because a third-country national could work in a country other than the home country of a multinational organization. Option B is incorrect because it is not necessarily true that host-country nationals will have problems adjusting to the culture of the country in which they work. Option D is not entirely accurate, as a host-country national may still have citizenship in the country in which they work. Option E is incorrect because it is not necessarily true that host-country nationals are the most expensive to employ.
