For many employees, corporate relocation is an opportunity to improve their quality of life, perhaps receiving a higher salary and promotion with the move, relocating to a more desirable area, or to a region with a lower cost of living. (Or, if they are fortunate, all of the above.) Even in these times of declining home prices, loss-on-sales and negative equity, is it possible for the relocation process to include an opportunity for employees to “trade-up” on their home? It could be. If it can be done in a cost-effective way without raising relocation costs significantly, it's a great way to show employees you are interested in their quality of life, happiness and success as they move forward with the relocation process.

One of the biggest expenses when relocating employees -- in the case of individual employee transfers or relocating entire corporate offices -- is surprise relocation costs. Emergency expenses no one predicted can blow your relocation budget out of the water, lead to frustrated HR staff and transferred employees, and hurt your company's bottom line. A relocation calculator can help accurately estimate relocation costs, so you can negotiate fair corporate relocation packages and then stick to the allotted budget for each relocation.

hinking of relocating your company with the help of a company relocation service? In addition to providing support before, during and after the move, helping you select service providers and sub-contractors, and setting best practices and benchmarks for employee relocation packages, a company relocation service can also help you determine if a move is the best idea right now.

How exactly do we define a “hidden cost” of relocation? It's not a non-disclosed cost buried in the supply chain—although those can be hidden and lead to surprise last-minute expenses if you don't have a relocation services company looking out for your company's best interests. But the real hidden costs of relocation lie in stressed-out transferees, lost productivity and even transferred employees who leave the company shortly after a relocation. If you eliminate loss-on-sale benefits for transferred employees who own their own homes, how much stress are you creating for your employees? If you don't offer spousal support, what will that do for the morale of your transferred employee? Stress leads to sick days, personal days and dissatisfied employees—all resulting in lost productivity and lost dollars for your company.
