Relocation is an ever-evolving industry, with new trends and practices emerging all the time. Many companies keep their relocation policies proprietary and confidential, so it can be quite difficult to sift through the available data to ensure your company’s relocation policies are remaining competitive within your industry.
For this very reason, companies, both large and small, choose to participate in global mobility benchmark studies.
¿Qué es un estudio comparativo de movilidad?
Un estudio de referencia le permite comparar las políticas de reubicación de su empresa con otras de tamaño, alcance y sector similares. Descubrirá lo que otras empresas ofrecen en términos de beneficios, bonificaciones y plazos, lo que le permite ver lo bien que compiten las políticas de su empresa. Muchos profesionales de la movilidad global utilizan datos de referencia para demostrar cómo gobiernan los competidores casos similares y hacer cambios en sus programas de movilidad en consecuencia.
Staying competitive in today’s job market is essential for all corporations but finding out if your company is staying competitive within your industry is only one of several benefits you will receive by participating in a benchmark study.
Atraer a los mejores talentos
Con la actual escasez de trabajadores, muchas industrias han optado por reevaluar sus estrategias de contratación porque atraer y retener a las personas adecuadas ya no es sólo un esfuerzo local. Ofrecer beneficios competitivos, incluida la reubicación, se ha convertido en algo esencial para que las empresas encuentren y conserven el talento que necesitan.
Asegúrese de que sus políticas de reubicación se ajustan a las metas y objetivos de la empresa
Is your company more concerned with cutting relocation cost or offering the best overall transferee experience? Adhering to global mobility best practices is only so important; your company’s culture and business practices are just as important. Benchmark studies will provide you with the data necessary to align your company’s objectives and culture with your mobility policies.
Uncover Relocation Cost-Saving Opportunities
One of the biggest reasons companies decide to benchmark their relocation policies is to determine new ways to save money. Mobility programs are one of the costliest benefits you can offer your employees. Therefore, it is always critical to learn about and identify areas within your program where you can cut cost, all while remaining competitive within your industry and true to your company’s culture.
Determine formas nuevas e innovadoras de gestionar su programa de reubicación
Remaining competitive is essential, but for some companies, standing out is even better. Companies implement new solutions and strategies all the time, and benchmark reports help shed light on new innovative opportunities.
Minimize Relocation Policy Exceptions
Do you find there are areas within your program where you are constantly making exceptions? Benchmarking allows you to see how other companies handle similar situations. It’s possible to use this data to make changes to your policies and minimize the amount of exceptions that occur.
Descubra cómo otras empresas gestionan el cambio
Change is inevitable when it comes to global mobility. The most recent event to shake up the mobility industry was the implementation of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. With these new regulations, moving expenses are no longer considered tax-exempt. This has required companies to reevaluate some of their relocation policies and implement changes, like tax assistance, as needed.
Un buen estudio de referencia incorporará acontecimientos actuales como éste en sus encuestas, para que pueda descubrir cómo otras empresas están manejando este tipo de situaciones.
