So, how can you make your employee relocating feel right at home in their new city? Here are some ways that you can welcome your new employees so that you can make a great impression on them from the start.<\/p>\n<h2>Employee Relocating &#8211; Give Them a Welcome Pack<\/h2>\n<p>This is a lovely gesture that will make your new employee feel special. You can give it to them on the first day at work, or have it waiting for them at their accommodation. What should you put in it? How about:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A warm and friendly letter welcoming them to the city and the company.<\/li>\n<li>A guide to the city with suggestions on interesting spots to visit.<\/li>\n<li>Local snacks or cookies.<\/li>\n<li>A bottle of wine or a case of local beer.<\/li>\n<li>A map of the area where they will be living.<\/li>\n<li>Coupons for discounts or freebies at local businesses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Provide Them With Convenient Accommodation<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-6274\" src=\"https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/009-300x198.jpg\" alt=\"Employee Relocating\" width=\"303\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/009-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/009.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 303px) 100vw, 303px\" \/>Placing your new employees in a hotel until they can move into a more permanent home isn\u2019t a great solution, especially if they need to stay there for a month or longer. Instead, provide them with a furnished <a href=\"https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/employee-relocation.php\">corporate housing apartment<\/a> where they can enjoy all of the comforts of home, such as a kitchen, washer and dryer, living room, office space and parking.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, make sure that they are located close to where they will be working. They are new to the city and they don\u2019t want to be spending all of their time getting lost while commuting.<\/p>\n<h2>Create a Helpful Checklist<\/h2>\n<p>When locating a new province or country, there are a lot of things that your new employee will need to think about when getting themselves settled in their new home. This can be overwhelming for them, as there are so many things to do and it\u2019s hard to know what is time-sensitive and what isn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>It can be very helpful to create a checklist for your employee relocating, to help them understand what needs to be done and what their priorities are. It will break down the large and overwhelming task into simpler and more manageable pieces. For reference, here\u2019s a helpful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/blog\/immigrating-to-canada\/\">checklist for employees moving to Canada <\/a>from abroad.<\/p>\n<h2>Host Opportunities to Socialize<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-6275\" src=\"https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/bigstock-Couple-And-A-Realtor-160117205-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Employee Relocating\" width=\"296\" height=\"197\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/bigstock-Couple-And-A-Realtor-160117205-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/bigstock-Couple-And-A-Realtor-160117205-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/bigstock-Couple-And-A-Realtor-160117205-440x294.jpg 440w, https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/bigstock-Couple-And-A-Realtor-160117205.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 296px) 100vw, 296px\" \/>When your new employee arrives, they will likely not know anyone in the city and might feel a little bit lonely. You can make them feel more at home by hosting events where they will have a chance to make friends.<\/p>\n<p>You can also offer information to them about other opportunities to meet people. If you aren\u2019t sure what to suggest, ask your existing employees what events or get-togethers they attend or what things they did in the city to make friends when they first arrived. Many different activities and groups will welcome newcomers and make them feel like part of the community.<\/p>\n<p>If you are looking for more information about employee relocation be sure to learn more about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/employee-relocation.php\">Employee Relocation<\/a> and if you are looking for a place around <a href=\"https:\/\/www.delsuites.com\/locations\/toronto\">Toronto<\/a>, be sure to search which short-term rental works best for you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thoughtful relocation support can make a big difference and can positively impact the performance and overall happiness of your&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false},"categories":[311,416,6,132,101,419],"tags":[70,64,51,305],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.10 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>How to Welcome an Employee Relocating - Delsuites&#039; Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Relocating can be intense, so it\u2019s important to ensure your employees feel welcome.
