Well-being plays a critical role in maintaining job performance and the decision to stay abroad for expatriates. According to a doctoral dissertation by Tania Biswas from the University of Vaasa, Finland, strong organizational support and favorable working conditions improve their well-being at work, leading to improved job outcomes and reduced turnover. However, high-risk environments and conflicts between work and personal life can reduce well-being, leading to poor performance and an increased desire to quit.
