These notes have been prepared for
partners who wish to work, study or otherwise develop
their skills or career while accompanying a Shell
employee to Aberdeen. Some of the topics covered are
complicated and laws are constantly changing. It is,
therefore, not always possible to provide full and
complete information. Where this is the case, websites
and useful contacts are provided.
We are always keen to improve and develop
this document and would be interested to hear from you
if you have any other useful information or would like
to see additional topics covered.
Please do not hesitate to contact
Outpost Aberdeen
for further assistance. We will be
happy to discuss your particular needs and help in any
way we can.
