 In this topic, we are going to talk about another component of pre-departure training, which is the training of third country nationals and host country nationals. You know that host country nationals are also sent for expatriate assignments to headquarters and third country nationals are sent to other countries for various different international assignments. So let's see what is the situation about the training of these people. What research tells us that people who are hired on expatriate assignments in the form of third country nationals or host country nationals, they are not given training for expatriate assignments usually. And this is the data which we see from the research. This can actually lead to perceptions of inequitable treatment in situations where parent country nationals and host country nationals or third country nationals, they are working in the same for a location. So agar parent country nationals ko training dee jaari hai aur TCNs ko aur HCNs ko nahi dee jaari, toh iss ki wajah iss me ek sense of or perception of inequitability to hai wo develop ko sakti hai. That is that is something which can lead to difficulty in adjustment to international assignment. Lekin aisa hota kyu hai? Hota isliye hai kyu ke amount of training wo it is directly related with the length of assignment. Disthara se humne black and mental health ke model me dekha tha, ke aap kiti der ke liye jaari hai kisi assignment ke liye. So usually hota hi hai, ke host country nationals ya jo third country nationals hain unko long term expatriate assignments me nahi beja jaata whereas unko jisthara ki assignments beja jaata hai wo short term hoti hai ya project based hoti hai ya unko troubleshooting ke liye beja jaata hai. So ya unko management development ke liye beja jaata hai. For example, host country se corporate headquarters me management development ke liye beja jaata hai. So mazeed training karwani ke toh usko zoroorat nahi hai. So wajah hi hai ke jo third country nationals hai ya host country nationals hai unka nature of assignment ya nature of job istharaan ka hota hai and length of stay istharaan ka hota hai ke aam torpe unko training dena ki zoroorat nahi mahesus ki jaati. Aur is wajah se bhi hota hai ke wo ek genuine expatriate assignment nahi consider ki jaati. So if you are going to any place for troubleshooting ke liye jaata hai ya short term pe jaata hai ya aap project karne ke liye jaata hai ya aap commuter commuting kar rahe from one country to the other. So usko ek genuine expatriate assignment nahi samjata jiski wajah se training ki investment karne me organization jo hai wo reluctant hoti hai. This is something where the corporate HR it must play its role and it must intervene that people who require training whether they are HCNs or TCNs or PCNs if they require training it should not be segregated on the basis of where they are coming from but the training should be assigned to people who require it. And this is something which should be explicitly told in organizational policies that what are the criteria for providing training to a particular person and if the person falls on that particular criteria then training should not be withheld because that person is a host country national or a third country national. So this is something which is the situation regarding the training of third country nationals and host country nationals.
