Monstermoving.com Launches Corporate Relocation Solutions; Equips Corporations with Essential International and Domestic Employee Relocation Information

NEW YORK, Oct 10, 2001 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Monstermoving.com, a leading online source of relocation information and a division of Monster.com(R), the flagship brand of TMP Worldwide Inc. (NASDAQ:TMPW), today announced the launch of Monstermoving Corporate Relocation Solutions, which provides in-depth relocation information and support tools to companies that relocate employees internationally and domestically.

Monstermoving Corporate Relocation Solutions supports both domestic and international transferees through online relocation centers. The U.S. Relocation Center provides a broad range of resources such as customized community profiles and orientation information, real estate agent referrals, a move planner, address change tools and utility transfer services. The International Relocation Center features a comprehensive overview about moving abroad, connections to expatriate communities and country-specific destination content including housing, schools, healthcare, transportation, social customs, and business practices.

Corporations invest significant resources to support employee relocations -- spending approximately $50,000 to relocate an employee domestically and up to $1 million to relocate a highly compensated employee internationally (National Foreign Trade Council, 2001). According to the Employee Relocation Council, some companies are reporting up to 20% of international assignments as failing, making the demand for comprehensive relocation resources clear. Monstermoving Corporate Relocation Solutions provides employers customizable, online relocation tools and information to complement their existing relocation services. The solution delivers direct time and cost saving benefits to the employer by providing transferees direct and instant access to essential relocation support.

Monstermoving boasts an impressive roster of more than 200 of the largest corporations in the U.S. including, JP Morgan Chase, Fed Ex Express, GlaxoSmithKline, Cargill, HSBC, General Motors and Siemens. These firms recognize the need for relocation tools and information that reduce costs and increase employee retention, effectively bridging the gap between the complex needs of relocating employees and basic logistical assistance.

"The successful relocation of an employee and his or her family has a significant impact on employee productivity, and ultimately, employee retention," said Scott Craighead, senior vice president of Corporate Relocation Services, Monstermoving.com. "Monstermoving Corporate Relocation Solutions greatly enhances the relocation process by providing critical and relevant information which empowers the transferee and provides a sense of ownership and control over the process."
