A Study on Enhancing the Adaptability and Satisfaction of Expatriate Employees Through Health and Welfare Strategies in Human Resource Management

When multinational companies assign employees to international roles, they often prioritize performance indicators and overlook the health and well-being of their expatriates. The aim of the present study is to highlight the importance of health and well-being policies for expatriates and multinational companies and to explore how such strategies can enhance expatriates' adjustment and satisfaction. Through a systematic literature review and qualitative analysis, this study examined several high-quality studies on expatriate adjustment and satisfaction. The findings show that organizational support, self-regulation, and job adjustment have a significant impact on employees' adaptation. However, these findings are often based on fixed employee samples, which limits their generalizability and long-term applicability. By empirically validating a theoretical model of employee well-being, combined with HRM strategies from an internationally renowned multinational company, this study fills a gap in existing research and highlights the important role of health and well-being strategies in expatriate employee adjustment and satisfaction.
