The Hidden Costs of Relocation
Overview
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.
When you limit or eliminate moving expenses as part of a relocation package, how many more days will your employees need to line up moving companies, find the best prices or move themselves? How many days of productivity will this cost your organization?

Most business owners and managers know that understanding taxes, tax laws, and regulations is best left to the professionals. This is especially true when you are talking about relocation policies and tax gross up. It's important to hire a Relocation Management Company (RMC) who will follow through from beginning to end of the relocation process, including gross up tax assistance.
The Danger of Inaccurate Relocation Expense Reporting and Gross Up
Inaccuracies in reporting of relocation expenses and tax gross up can lead to a myriad of problems. Accounting departments often use a method called tax gross up so employees don't face tax burdens on relocation expenses covered by the company. Essentially, the amount provided to employees for relocation is enough to cover the related taxes from that income, as well. While tax gross up is a legitimate business practice, if it's not handled properly, gross up inaccuracies can lead to an audit, which could adversely affect your entire company. Don't take chances with a relocation management company that doesn't follow up with gross up tax assistance.
