The ratio of employees to HR personnel stands at 74:1. It is significantly higher in the case of Band 4 (with annual revenue of over 1B+) with 117 employees to a single HR personnel, and 49:1 for Band 1 companies.

Increasingly, companies have realized the potential of rotating their project team across destinations. It has not only decreased attrition rates but in many ways enhanced the skill-sets of high performing individuals. However, there are a number of restraining factors for such a campaign. Almost 57% companies believe that cultural compatibility/acclimatization for expats is the leading constraint followed closely by lodging costs. Though these factors remained a consistent trait amongst companies in Band 1, 2 and 3, it was not the case in majority of the Band 4 companies. 33% of companies with over 1 Billion in turnover thought of housing availability, quality and security for Expats as the prime restraining factor.
