Winnipeg Office Moving Company | Winnipeg Moving

There are many good reasons to decide to move your office but, no matter the reason, there is sure to be hesitation on the part of the business owner. Challenges faced during corporate relocation run the gamut from losing a few days of work time to losing some of your best employees. If you partner with the right Winnipeg moving company, however, you can complete your office relocation with a minimum of lost time—and without losing your best employees.

Here are some tips to keep in mind as you being to plan your Winnipeg office move.

Give the Right Amount of Notice

One big question when it comes to moving your business is how much notice to give employees. If you give too much, they will have more time to find other local employment. If you give too little, that is inconsiderate to the employee, and they will likely feel (and rightly so) disrespected. No matter how much in advance you know about the move, consider making the announcement about six months in advance.

The Timing

There are pros and cons of moving in each season, but if you have a lot of employees with children then it's best not to plan the move during the school year. Many parents are unwilling to pull their kids out of school in the middle of the year. If you plan the move for early summer, this will give families a chance to get settled in their new homes before the school year starts. You should also be flexible and, if possible, give employees who relocated a timeframe within which they can move instead of insisting they move at the same time as the office.

Employee Moving Expenses
