International Benefits Reference Guide

[Guest kabmaxx]

I am interested in purchasing a reference guide on the subject of international benefits as we are expanding globally. We had located one previously in HR Exec magazine, I recall, requested the report (which included a CD I believe) and did not receive it. We have been unable to find that ad again. Any advice on an extensive reference for international benefits?

Watson Wyatt publishes several reference books on international employment matters including benefits, compensation, labor. I have found them to be invaluable resources.
