The Global HR Programs group supports the university's global workforce presence by establishing Stanford standard practices and guidelines for global employment in keeping with university principles and values, and providing the tools needed to comply with local employment practices.
Stanford Centers around the world include: Chile, China, France, Germany, Ghana, Italy, Japan, South Africa, Spain and the United Kingdom. Employees or affiliates who work for Stanford in a country other than the United States of America are subject to the laws and tax regulations of the host country, which determine associated employment policies, practices, and benefits; please visit the Cardinal at Work website to learn details about the benefits, vacation, and other aspects of working in another country:
