GD9 CTW fileÒ  Business 02, Ø As more companies establish their businesses globally, they are faced with relocating businesspeople and their dependents to locations all over the world. The transition to a new location can be smoooth if the move is coordinated well. Careful planning and consultation by the relocation manager with the employee being relocated and the mover may save the company money, and the employee and dependents may be spared unsettling situations and aggravation. Among the questions to be discussed and resolved by the coordinator and the employee are which personal possessions should be shipped, which goods should be stored, and which relocation company should be responsible for scheduling the move. The relocation manager within the company usually is acquainted with firms that specialize in offering excellent services for moving employees and their possessions to the new location. The manager will discuss the specific details of the move with both the employee and the moving company. The employee should feel free to ask pertinent questions that relate to organizing for the move. Once the date of the move has been set, the employee should inventory which items will be packed and shipped by the moving company and which items should not be packed. When the moving company arrives, only the items that are to be shipped should be in the house. While most firms will pay the bulk of relocating expenses, employees should keep careful records to justify any additional moving expenses.
