Hardship Post
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A hardship post in the United States Foreign Service is an overseas post where living conditions are difficult due to climate, crime, health care, pollution or other factors [1]. Employees assigned to such posts receive a hardship differential of between 10 and 35 percent of their salary. A hardship post with security issues, for example in a war zone, may also be a designated danger post with employees eligible for additional danger pay.
