What features bring the managing of human resources in international business? What are the appropriate proactive preparations? Give examples.

In international human resource management, the recruitment and hiring process ensures that an organization has the ability to get qualified personnel to fill in the available positions and be able to meet the qualities and standards of the organization. The human resource management in an international setting has to ensure that it conforms to the rules and regulations that have been set by the foreign country and ensure that in managing their employees, they go as per the people's culture and beliefs. The human resource should consider factors such as the taxes levied by the government to employees in their compensation plans to ensure that they do not exploit their employees.

Proactive preparations refer to the measure that an organization keeps in place so as to ensure they recruit and select employees who are the best fit for a given task. Some of the proactive activities that an organization can take include; determining the needs of the organization, having a recruitment, training, and compensation strategy.

For example, for a company intending to extend its operations in a foreign country, it has to establish the need and reasons why the company wants to extend its branches. This way, the human resource management department can know and gauge the type of employees it would need; is it skilled or unskilled? And by so doing, they can tell on the different approaches to use in recruiting, training, and compensating the employees in relation to the tasks assigned.
