What is Tax Equalization?

A compensation policy that ensures an employee on an international assignment pays roughly the same amount of income tax they'd pay if they had stayed in their home country, with the employer covering any excess foreign tax burden.

Why it matters in hiring

Tax Equalization comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
