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.

Advantages of a Global Mobility Benchmark Study

モビリティベンチマークスタディとは?

ベンチマーク・スタディでは、自社のリロケーション・ポリシーを、規模、範囲、業種が類似した他社と比較することができます。他社が提供する福利厚生、ボーナス、時間枠などを調べることで、自社の施策がどの程度の競争力を持つかを確認することができるのです。多くのグローバルモビリティの専門家は、ベンチマークデータを使用して、競合他社が同様のケースをどのように管理しているかを示し、それに応じてモビリティプログラムに変更を加えています。

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.

優秀な人材の確保

労働力不足が叫ばれる中、多くの企業が採用戦略の見直しを迫られています。転勤を含め、競争力のある福利厚生を提供することは、企業が必要な人材を確保し、維持するために不可欠なものとなっています。

移転に関する方針が会社の目標と目的に合致していることを確認する

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.

リロケーションプログラムの新しい革新的な管理方法の決定

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.

他社がどのように変化を管理しているかを見る

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.
