Setting your employees up for success upon arrival at their new locations will be key to successfully meeting your company’s goals.

Employee Counselling

For your employees, a single relocation professional assists with end-to-end coordination of services: a relocation consultant for domestic/intra-country moves or global assignment consultant for international relocation. These consultants are your employees’ resource for all communication and services relating to their move, and coordinate the delivery of all authorised services. Regardless of the service being delivered (temporary housing, moving services, etc.), the employee can rely on the consultant as their go-to resource to address any concerns.

VIP Services

If you are searching for an enhanced service for your employees, SIRVA offers VIP services such as personal relocation assistants, in-home cleaning services, personalised family assistance, and many other tailored and luxury enhancements.

Mobility can be a valuable tool to enhance your employees’ growth, support existing diversity initiatives in your mobile population, and encourage more diverse employees to accept relocation opportunities.

To this end, it is vital for the Mobility function to focus on providing opportunities to a more representative population in support of broader organisational diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) objectives.

To provide a framework of approaches and actions towards a more diverse, inclusive and equitable mobile workforce SIRVA BGRS, in partnership with RW3 CultureWizard, developed a paper: Harnessing Employee Mobility to Enhance Understanding and Practice of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.

Mobility has the unique potential for an organisation to actively develop DEI skills both in its employee population, and amongst its leadership.

The paper includes:

Tips for how to develop diversity awareness and inclusive mindsets in mobile employees
Benefits of targeted global inclusion training for your mobile employees
A five-phase roadmap for DEI in talent mobility
An example of what a ‘gold standard’ inclusive assignment might look like
