Dear Mr. Brown,

It depends on the contract they are offering you. You can also negotiate during application and interview process. Sometimes, the contract terms are stated since the first moment and you are aware of it.

 

Wish you all the success, 

Eslam

Travelling expenses at the time of joining the duty and also at the time of annual leave (both side) will be borne by the company and also any official business travel.

hi mr  Brown,

i think it depends on your contract with the company but my oppinion is that it shoud includes traveling expenses  even if  it is  for a limited number that both agreed on it

wish you good luck

it depends on the terms of your contrcat. respected companies are responsible for your travelling expenses , housing, medical insurance and other expeneses are encluded within the contract.

other companies pay the salary and you are responsible for the housing and the travelling expenses.

other cmpanies are responsible for the travelling expenses and the housing is yours to find.

so, all in all it depends if the company is good or not and your cleverness in negotiation.

just make sure that all agreed on terms are dectated in the contract and you have a legalised copy of it  to avoid any problem that may arise in case the company does not respect the agreement.

Good luck

Good day Mr. Brown,

 

It depends on agreement, one of my colleagues here in philippines was pirated by the employer from abroad. The employer cover his expenses. It depends if the employer find you as the one in a million or a key person for their company.  Some employer wouldn't bother to cover the expense if the person is very competent and skilled.

I think that travel expenses rests with the employer only if there is a clause in the employment contract provides otherwise, but remains the supreme interest of the company above any other consideration
