May 2009
This pulse survey on relocation assistance provided to employees relocated within the U.S. is based on data collected
in April 2009. Of the 816 member organizations invited to participate in the online survey, 182 responded—a 22
percent response rate. Data pertains to employees relocated domestically within the U.S.

Just under half of organizations reported that their U.S. domestic transfer activity for both current employees and new
hires dropped between 2008 and 2007. About 70 percent anticipate further declines for both of these groups in activity
in 2009 from 2008. Just over half of organizations indicated having a hiring freeze currently in effect for at least non-
critical employees and virtually all of them reported that the freeze had taken affect within the last 12 months. Nearly
three-quarters of companies are experiencing problems with employee reluctance to relocate—41 percent cited
moderate to major problems. Of those experiencing problems, almost all of them indicated that the depressed housing
market was the major reason for employee reluctance to move.

Two-thirds of respondents provide homesale assistance. Looking for ways to help employees manage through a
difficult housing market, a small percentage of organizations (13 percent) with homesale programs offer property
management assistance to employees who are ineligible for the homesale program. Most companies assist at least
some employees with purchase closing costs when buying a home in the new location. However, it may be difficult to
buy a home right away in the current market and so transferees must rent for a period of time. When an employee
eventually does buy a home, the large majority of companies will still assist with the purchase closing costs but only if
the employee does so within 12 months of the relocation. Only 13 percent provide assistance with no time limit.

Approximately 70 percent of organizations have made changes to their policies within the last year—most of which
address challenges created by the housing market. Most commonly, these changes included: restriction on the listing
prices of homes being processed through the homesale program to a certain percentage of the company buyout offer,
extension of the temporary living period, the addition or enhancement of a homesale bonus for those employees who
find buyers for their homes, and restriction of the availability of the guaranteed buyout to selected employees.

2009 Us Corporate Relocation Benchmarking Survey

  • 1. May 2009 This pulse survey on relocation assistance provided to employees relocated within the U.S. is based on data collected in April 2009. Of the 816 member organizations invited to participate in the online survey, 182 responded—a 22 percent response rate. Data pertains to employees relocated domestically within the U.S. Just under half of organizations reported that their U.S. domestic transfer activity for both current employees and new hires dropped between 2008 and 2007. About 70 percent anticipate further declines for both of these groups in activity in 2009 from 2008. Just over half of organizations indicated having a hiring freeze currently in effect for at least non- critical employees and virtually all of them reported that the freeze had taken affect within the last 12 months. Nearly three-quarters of companies are experiencing problems with employee reluctance to relocate—41 percent cited moderate to major problems. Of those experiencing problems, almost all of them indicated that the depressed housing market was the major reason for employee reluctance to move. Two-thirds of respondents provide homesale assistance. Looking for ways to help employees manage through a difficult housing market, a small percentage of organizations (13 percent) with homesale programs offer property management assistance to employees who are ineligible for the homesale program. Most companies assist at least some employees with purchase closing costs when buying a home in the new location. However, it may be difficult to buy a home right away in the current market and so transferees must rent for a period of time. When an employee eventually does buy a home, the large majority of companies will still assist with the purchase closing costs but only if the employee does so within 12 months of the relocation. Only 13 percent provide assistance with no time limit. Approximately 70 percent of organizations have made changes to their policies within the last year—most of which address challenges created by the housing market. Most commonly, these changes included: restriction on the listing prices of homes being processed through the homesale program to a certain percentage of the company buyout offer, extension of the temporary living period, the addition or enhancement of a homesale bonus for those employees who find buyers for their homes, and restriction of the availability of the guaranteed buyout to selected employees. 1.
