Taking the Relocation Burden Off of Internal HR Teams
Often times, the task of coordinating employee relocations falls on internal HR teams. However, this is is never a great idea. Case in point:
- Recruiting, onboarding, benefits, payroll…most HR departments have very full plates already. On top of all that, do you really want to saddle them with the nitty-gritty, time-sensitive tasks like identifying the best places to live in Austin?
- Unless your HR pros are experts on moving logistics, they face a steep learning curve. Managing relocations requires specialized skills—and you can’t afford to have details fall through the cracks.
- Even if your HR team hails from Texas’s capital city, do you want the success of your employees’ relocation to fall on their shoulders, alone?
For all these reasons, partnering with a next-generation relocation management company like UrbanBound offers a better way.
