Temporary (Short Term) Domestic Assignments

TRC Global Mobility | February 6, 2017

Short-term domestic work assignment With more and more companies looking for creative ways to save money, many have turned to their relocation policies for areas in which to cut costs.  One trend that has gained in popularity recently is the temporary domestic assignment (TDA).

The IRS defines a short-term assignment as one that lasts for less than one year.  This is a very important distinction because the benefits change from non-taxable or deductible to taxable at the one-year mark. Companies that provide relocation tax assistance can save a considerable amount of money by not having to pay taxes on the benefits. Read More

Why Benchmark? The Benefits of Benchmarking Domestic & International Relocation Policies

Jerry Funaro | January 20, 2017

benchmarking dataCompanies benchmark their employee relocation policies to analyze process performance, evaluate their program against their competitors’ or to measure their program against their own divisional or location-related best practices.

If you have a mobile workforce, benchmarking your domestic and international relocation policies against the competition and other selected companies is critical, and your relocation management company can be a great help. Relocation management companies use technology to capture and evaluate data across many clients. They evaluate this data and share their insights with clients who are assessing their mobility programs. Read More

Employee Relocation: Cultural Training for Intra-Country Moves?

TRC Global Mobility | December 22, 2016

Training for Intra-Country MovesWe expect to experience some degree of culture shock in global moves, and often provide cultural training to help mitigate it. But culture shock is rarely acknowledged for moves within the same country, and support to manage it is even rarer. Since neither companies nor relocating employees expect domestic culture shock, the situation becomes even more confounding. Read More

Employee Relocation – What Is Domestic Culture Shock?

TRC Global Mobility | December 1, 2016

Domestic Relocation Culture Shock
Culture shock is a well-known phenomenon in global relocation. However, many companies fail to recognize and address culture shock when it happens closer to home. Employees moving North to South or East to West within the same country are actually just as likely to experience some form of culture shock as if they had moved around the world, though perhaps not to the same degree. The difference is how we treat them.

A primer on home finding assistance in relocation packages

TRC Global Mobility | November 20, 2015

Corporate relocations entail more than a new job position. The list of items that come into play for any relocation is long, but at the top is usually finding a new place to call home.

Real estate conceptMost corporate relocation packages  include some type of home finding assistance. The benefit can vary considerably, from a lump sum to a full-service, escorted area orientation, depending on the company and sometimes the employee’s position.

Regardless of the scope of the program, the goal of TRC Global Mobility is to make the relocation as stress-free as possible and provide expert, professional advice throughout the process. Read More
