What is Relocation Assistance?

Financial and logistical support provided by employers to help employees move to a new location for a job, covering expenses like moving costs, temporary housing, home sale assistance, and settling-in support.

Why it matters in hiring

Relocation Assistance comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
