Human resource management and labour relations in the BRICs

Más información sobre el libro

The BRIC countries—Brazil, Russia, India, and China—have emerged as key players in globalization, significantly impacting the world economy since the early 21st century. As these large "emerging markets" grow, their organizational structures and patterns gain global influence, particularly relevant for companies expanding their operations in these regions, such as in the automobile industry. This publication features contributions from four authors representing the BRIC nations, exploring the unique aspects of HR personnel systems based on research literature that is often inaccessible to Western audiences. It examines traditional models of personnel system formation, human resource management practices, organizational patterns, and management concepts that companies can adopt. The authors also discuss ongoing debates and the role of multinational corporations in shaping these systems. The diverse approaches to personnel management reflect varying conditions, legal frameworks, and cultural influences across the BRIC countries. Collectively, these insights highlight the evolving landscape of labor and personnel management in the new industrial hubs of the global economy.
