HRM
HRM places greater emphasis on a number of responsibilities and functions such as
relocation, orientation and translation services to help employees adapt to a new
and different environment outside their own country.
• Selection of employees requires careful evaluation of the personal characteristics
of the candidate and his/her spouse.
• Training and development extends beyond information and orientation training to
include sensitivity training and field experiences that will enable the manager to
understand cultural differences better. Managers need to be protected from career
development risks, re-entry problems and culture shock.
• To balance the pros and cons of home country and host country evaluations,
performance evaluations should combine the two sources of appraisal information.
• Compensation systems should support the overall strategic intent of the
organization but should be customized for local conditions.
• In many European countries - Germany for one, law establishes representation.
Organizations typically negotiate the agreement with the unions at a national level.
In Europe it is more likely for salaried employees and managers to be unionized.
