Overview of the assignment: Using the IHRM ideas and theory covered in this course, students must analyze the current IHRM issues that international HR managers must address while managing human capital in both national and globalized contexts.
Trade, labor, and employment legislation can have a positive or negative impact on HR practices in foreign offices depending on the country.
For instance, Dowling et al. (2017) point out a significant challenge for MNEs with regard to the response of consumers in the Home Country to claims of unfair employment practices, poor consumer practices, financial breaches, etc. even if these only elicit a minimal or no response from consumers in the Host Country.
The Global HR Director of Ceutical has requested that you conduct additional research, write a 2,000-word report outlining Poland’s industrial or employment relations characteristics (such as employers, trade unions, and employment laws), and critically assess the case for enacting a global code of conduct for human resource management.
