Spouse Relocation

Today’s families typically include two working professionals. As a result, it is becoming increasingly difficult to recruit new talent from other geographic locations and to move existing high potential employees from one city to another. The prospect of interrupting one family member’s career to accommodate a geographic move of the other can create a multitude of intra-family problems that can affect productivity and ultimately lead to increases in voluntary turnover. A Leathers Milligan relocating spouse support program can be the key element that helps you manage your talented people and ensure success for all parties. Structured much like an outplacement program, spouse relocation programs are designed to be applicable to the job grade of the affected spouse and can range in length from a few weeks to unlimited plans that work with the relocating spouse until new employment is secured. With spouse relocation support, we can help the relocating spouse connect to a new community, tap into professional and social media networks and find appropriate new employment much more quickly than if left to his or her own devices. Spouse relocation programs add minimal cost to an overall relocation package and provide a strong return on investment by helping you get the right person into the right job, vastly enhancing your company’s image while greatly reducing the stress of relocation on the employee and their family. In short, spouse relocation support can provide big returns for a very small investment.
