host country orientation

Host country orientation refers to the process where employees, typically expatriates, learn about the customs, culture, laws, and business practices of the country where they are working. This helps them adapt smoothly to their new environment, understand local expectations, and perform effectively while respecting local norms. It often includes information on social behaviors, communication styles, work etiquette, and legal considerations, ensuring the employee can integrate well both professionally and personally during their assignment abroad.
