for current employees and nearly 8 percent for new hires from 1997.
Meannwhile, the cost of relocating employees who rent reached $15,604 last year, and the
cost for new hires was $11,491. Each of those figures represents a 10 percent increase
over 1997. Homeowners, both current employees and new hires, constituted 57 percent
of the corporate relocations in 1998. However, new hires were somewhat more likely to be
