Speed up those claims
Our experience has shown that no matter how good the relocation services are that the relocating employee receives, it is normally the speed at which the employee receives payment for their expenses, that will decide in the employee's mind how well their relocation has been handled.
A recent survey by Hessel amongst expats on assignment in London revealed that the majority were concerned about the speed with which their expenses had been reimbursed. In many cases it was a case of running out of local credit to pay big important expenses such as school fees that seemed to be the problem. Employees on a monthly reimbursement cycle were hardest hit in this respect.
At Hessel we would say that it is normally your busiest employees who are constantly on the move that need to submit their expenses easily and get paid quickly. The ease at which they can submit their expense claims often proves a pivotal point within any well organized expense management program.
