According to the reviewed literature, the problems of developing a uniform method are determined including the lack of standard practices, guessing costs rather than estimating them, the lack of metrics for both costs and benefits and the difficulty of collecting all relevant data. Moreover the approaches of creating a uniform process, the expatriate return on investment as the most important one, are discussed. As a result, this thesis presents recommendations for establishing an improved employee relocation cost management.}, language = {en} }
