Thanks. Apparently I was misinformed by a (soon to be former) tax advisor.

Subject: Moving Expenses
We also believe it is deductible by the employer if you include the reimbursed amount in the employees income. Our group has historically reimbursed moving expenses (up to a fixed $ amount upon submission of receipts) and will continue to do so. Being taxed on that reimbursement isn't great for the employee, but it is still better than no reimbursement at all ...
Thanks,

If the employer includes the reimbursements in the employees income, I do believe they can then deduct it as an expense. It is only non-deductible if not included in income of the employee. Of course all the associated taxes, etc. of wages are also a factor.
