Got some questions in translating the following text (about some Siemens regulations for their overseas employees).
Pauschalen (zum Beispiel Umzugsbeihilfe) nicht mehr an Mindestdauer von 12 Monaten geknüpft. Sie werden zu Beginn des Assignments ausgezahlt und müssen nicht zurückgezahlt werden.
1. Pauschalen: flat rate, fixed payment for once?
2. Does the second sentence mean "The costs will be paid at the beginning of an overseas project (probably by the company) and the employees don't have to repay them later"?
Anyone familiar with such regulations? Would you please help understand the above text? Lots of thanks in advance.

Translating some employment regulations
Salary payment and welfare
sounds to me like:
1. Flat rate (for example, for relocation costs) are no longer bound to minimum stay of 12 months.
2. You will be given payments at the beginning of the assignment. You do not need to replay them.

Got to help out my younger brother in translating the terrible text and have no idea about them even in my mother tongue. Anyone experienced in translating the following words? Any suggestions to some mechanics-relevant translation engines? Thanks in advance.

Everytime when I try to translate such stuff, I would use on lots of webpages, google, leo, answers, blar blar and finally make out another terrible text.
Perhaps one of them can help you this time around?

Lump sums (e.g. allowance for relocation costs) are no longer tied to minimum employment of 12 months. They will be paid out at the beginning of an assignment and do not need to paid back.
(Nice perks...)
Many thanks, EF. Kay, don't understand what you said very well.

You mean the text quoted from those three posts? You are right, the English is pretty bad.
