iRelo contributes to your success in hiring and retaining talent by supporting
the family when and how it is most critical to them. Traditional relocation packages deliver
the employee and family to the door of a new home. We successfully deliver them to a new
life.
Recruiting Employee: We give the spouse a reason to be willing to move
Family concerns are a top reason for refusal to relocate. iRelo works closely with the spouse
to address show-stopping concerns related to living in a new environment.
- 87% of GMAC* survey respondents cite “family concerns”
as a primary reason for refusing an assignment (top challenges cited were education of children,
adjustment of family, and resistance by spouse/partner).
Post-Hire/Relocation of Family: Keeping the family happy is a must
iRelo significantly reduces the stress of settling into a new life. We concentrate on family
adjustment so your employee can remain fully engaged.
- Spousal/partner dissatisfaction cited by 95% as reason
for assignment failures.
- Expatriate attrition rates at least double that of other
employees.
- U.S. one of top four countries cited as having highest
rate of assignment failure.
- Intercultural issues cited repeatedly as source of challenge
and/or failure.
Protecting Your Investment: Quality-of-life for family relates to quality
of employee contribution
External and internal surveys show that employee spouses
tend to have significantly longer and more difficult adjustment periods after relocation.
iRelo services are designed to provide spousal support.
- 58% of trailing spouses work before expatriation; only 8% work in new location. Studies,
as well as our own surveys, indicate that this gap can create serious strain on the couple
or family, which impacts your employee.
- iRelo is educated about differences between challenges faced by male and female trailing
spouses and has the skills and tools to assist him or her to get re-established through
coaching, networking, and cultural-skill building.
- iRelo has experience coaching parents and guiding them through new and confusing territory,
reducing family stress that impact a new-hire’s professional life.
- iRelo coaching includes the use of the CSAI™-BC (Business/Corporate). This tool increases
employee retention by assessing and enhancing intercultural adjustment and skills of the
employee and his/her family.
iRelo understands your commitment to ensuring a successful transition for your employee,
and will work with you to protect your investment in talented professionals by supporting
the trailing spouse and family throughout the entire process.
