Frequently Asked Questions
What is a employee relocation?
Employee relocation refers to the process of moving one or more team members from one place to another. It could involve a move within the same city, a move to a different town or city, or even a move to an entirely different country.
Why do companies relocate employees?
Companies relocate employees for various reasons. One common reason is to bring the employee closer to the company’s headquarters, facilitating more effective collaboration with colleagues in a shared workspace.
What should I consider when relocating employees?
When looking to relocate employees, it’s beneficial to incentivise the move by offering a relocation package, especially for senior and key team members. These packages typically aim to provide the employees with things such as a promotion or enhanced career prospects, a more lucrative compensation package, or a combination of both.
It’s essential to take into account any potential expenses or disruptions that the relocation might impose on your employee, and propose appropriate terms that may help alleviate these concerns. This may involve covering moving company expenses or extending employment support to the employee’s spouse, particularly if they need assistance in securing employment in the new location.
How do I prepare for a corporate move?
Start your office relocation plans at least six months prior to the moving day. Prepare a detailed timeline and draw up a comprehensive moving checklist. Before engaging commercial movers, carefully set and assess your budget, including all necessary expenses such as rent for both current and future locations, utilities, insurance, and potential storage fees.
Visit the new office space to identify any necessary changes or repairs before the move. Then when ready, hire a professional removals company. A week before moving to the new business location, update your address both online and offline. Review your to-do list, consulting with your team to ensure that everything is on track.
What is the difference between transfer and relocation?
It’s important to note that relocation typically involves moving to a different city or even a different country, while a transfer is more likely to occur within the same city or perhaps just to another department within the same facility where you currently work.
