    Turning Global Mobility into a Performance Edge

    Turning Global Mobility into a Performance Edge

    Cigna Healthcare International Health Study: 2026 Globally Mobile Edition

    About the study

    Globally mobile employees bring valuable adaptability and learning strengths to organisations but face unique challenges that can impact their well-being and performance.

    Understanding internationally mobile employees’ strengths and challenges allows organisations with a global strategy to transform vitality into a true performance advantage.

    Key highlights from the study:

    • Stress and belonging: Globally mobile employees experience stress more acutely, tied to financial and workplace stressors and loneliness.
    • Challenges and barriers to care: Nearly three in four wished for more support with relocation. Delays, costs, and waiting times create challenges in accessing timely care. Financial struggles, lack of employer support, and work-life balance pose difficulties for individuals.
    • The vitality influencers: Globally mobile employees bring strong learning drive and are upheld by close family support systems, both tied to higher overall vitality. These are attributes employers can channel to strengthen performance.

    "Living and working abroad has shaped how I approach leadership. I’ve seen first-hand how the right support can determine whether a globally mobile employee merely copes or truly thrives. When organisations invest in meaningful preparation, accessible care, and a sense of belonging, they unlock the full potential of a workforce that is adaptable, resilient, and eager to contribute."

    Employer and employee checklists

    Here are our employer and employee checklists for preparing in advance of overseas assignments.

    Pre‑move action plan for employers

    • Provide a benefits navigator and cross‑border care guide (including virtual triage, mental health, and urgent care). Ensure capabilities are clearly communicated.
    • Create a resources packet for employees and their families, clearly indicating which moving and logistics costs are covered.
    • Offer financial counselling and transparent relocation budgeting tools
    • Set up buddy programmes and expat clubs. As part of inductions, signpost community-building activities to help employees build connections within their first 90 days in a new location.
    • Provide access to digital capabilities including virtual consultations to bridge geographic gaps.
    • Provide facts, tips and information about the culture, customs and social norms of the place they’ll be moving to. Include where to find language classes.

    Pre‑move action plan for employees

    • Build a personal care plan: confirm coverage, virtual care options, prescriptions, and emergency pathways in your new location.
    • Gather copies of your medical records and ensure an adequate supply of essential prescriptions.
    • Budget for cost‑of‑living shifts and one‑time relocation expenses; speak with your employer to clarify what is covered through relocation assistance.
    • Make a plan to establish community connections within your first 90 days. Explore local sports clubs, expat networks, parent groups, or local chapters of clubs you’re already in.
    • Ask your employer about buddy programmes and social sports leagues available at work.
    • Maintain strong ties with friends and family at home: consider how you’ll share updates, celebrate milestones remotely, or create shared routines.
