Описание: An expatriate is a person temporarily or permanently residing in a country other than that of their citizenship. During the latter half of the 20th century, expatriation was dominated by professionals sent by their employers to foreign subsidiaries or headquarters. Starting at the end of the 20th century globalisation created a global market for skilled professionals and levelled the income of skilled professionals relative to cost of living while the income differences of the unskilled remained large. Many corporations are sending expatriates to their overseas operations. In fact, expatriates have and the need for internationally competent managers is expected to rise as more and more firms face global competition. Research Handbook of Expatriates is a compilation of contributions that provides a comprehensive discussion of expatriates and significant insights into emerging areas of research. This book will appeal to advanced graduate students and scholars in the field of expatriate research, international management, global human resource management and business administration. It will also provide a comprehensive guidance for executives and recruiters along with emigrants and professionals who may emigrant. The text highlights the importance of personal characteristics of expatriates that are often underestimated in companies selection procedures. Moreover, the connection between the parent companys strategy and the pattern of institutionalization of HRM practices should make the company management reflect upon the preferred pattern before taking the basic decisions. Organisations need to understand the dynamic relationships between staffing and outcomes, and how these relationships change over time. Understanding expatriates on international assignment helps in improving the strategic initiatives by the corporates and the government in retaining them. Expatriates provide a number of benefits for companies, including greater parent control and particular expertise. International experience is also seen as providing opportunities for personal and professional development and career advancement. Expatriates are very expensive, however, and this can discourage extensive use of expatriates. Many companies have also experienced relatively high failure rates, with failure often being attributed to the familys inability to adapt. Several characteristics determine an expatriates expected level of success: job skills, motivational state, language skills, relationship skills, and family situation. Technical competency is most often used as the selection criteria for expatriates, but that is rarely the best selection technique. The technical skills of an expatriate are of course important, but other skills can be as important.

Описание: People are different in not only gender, culture, race, social and psychological characteristics but also in their perspectives and prejudices. Society had discriminated on these aspects for centuries. Diversity makes the work force heterogeneous. In current scenario, employing diversified workforce is a necessity for every organisation but to manage such diversified workforce is also a big challenge for management. This paper critically analyses the workforce diversity and its impact on productivity of an organisation. Scholars have produced much literature in the field of DM. Affirmative action occurs when an organisation attempts to ensure there is no discrimination in education and that equal opportunity exists. Human resource management (HRM) involves planning, integration, and actions to achieve effective management of all employees. In addition, diversity management (DM) includes planning and executing practices of human resource management to maximize the potential advantages of diversity and minimize its disadvantages. In this approach, diversity can be included in the set of human management practices, guaranteeing an alignment between the strategies of human resources and diversity management goals. Discrimination occurs when individuals, institutions, or governments treat people differently because of personal characteristics such as race, gender, or sexual orientation instead of their ability to perform their jobs, including when such actions have a negative impact on access to jobs, promotions, and compensation. However, DM is a strategic approach to human resource management, and is supported by some programs, activities and tools, directed towards integration and development of diversity, both physical and job-related, exhibited by members of an organisation. In this focus, the concept of DM practices is characterized as the set of formalized practices developed and implemented by organisations. In the text, diversity related human resource management statements and diversity management statements are taken into account and interpreted. Research Handbook of International and Comparative Perspectives on Diversity Management examines how the various actors react, adopt and manage the different dimensions of diversity, from a multitude of approaches, from national to sectoral and from tribes to trade unions, but always with a comparative, multi-country perspective. It covers age, gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, national origin and the intersection of various dimensions of diversity. The book will be of particular interest to both scholars and postgraduate students in addition to public policy-makers, industry practitioners, top leadership, middle managers and HR managers.

Описание: We spend a third of our lives at work, so it is crucial to our health and well-being that this is a positive experience. Staff well-being is an increasingly relevant and necessary consideration in the modern workplace. Well-being at its simplest level is perhaps ultimately about personal happiness -- feeling good and living safely and healthily. This means not allowing work to undermine our basic purposes and needs in our lives, and by extension those of our families and loved ones. In this respect well-being is a hugely significant aspect of work and careers. Many facets of work do not necessarily impact on our core life needs. This cannot be said for well-being and stress, whose implications run very deeply indeed - mind, body and soul. Well-being is strongly connected with work-related stress, and also with associated terms such as stress management, stress reduction, stress avoidance, etc. Organisational psychology research also shows that creating a positive working environment can have business benefits as well. The evidence that affective well-being is a causal influence on performance is stronger than the evidence for job characteristics. Despite weak correlations with job satisfaction, assessments of more affective components have been related to performance ratings in several studies. There is a body of longitudinal evidence, and some studies have found that well-being predicts future performance, after controlling for initial performance. Research Handbook on Work and Well-Being is devoted to understanding the biopsychosocial and behavioural factors leading to enhanced well-being, optimal emotional processing and the prevention of psychological dysfunction. Chapters examining the mechanisms underlying the relationships between lifestyle factors, positive psychology interventions, emotion processes and well-being are sought. Evidence is reviewed on work performance as a consequence of both psychological well-being and work stressors. There is evidence that some forms of psychological well-being are related to subsequent in-role performance, although the evidence for a causal influence of work stressors on job performance is much weaker. There is also evidence for relationships between some job stressors or well-being and organisational citizenship behaviours.

Описание: The importance of human resources has received much attention in recent years. At a macro level, endogenous growth theories suggest that the accumulation of human capital constitutes the main engine of macro-economic growth. At a micro level, resource-based theory points to the human capital of employees as a major source for sustained competitive advantage for individual firms. As a result of the increasing importance of human capital, which to a large extent is related to developments in information and communication technologies. During the last decade, the focus of HRM research has shifted from conceptual studies about the nature of HRM to studies that examine the impact of HRM on organisational performance. In this context, human resources are the most important asset of statistical offices. Appropriate and skilled human resources are essential to ensure the production of high quality statistics and to implement more efficient and effective production processes based on new technologies. Proactive human resources management is essential to achieve the abovementioned change and to allow firms to meet the challenges today and in future. Early approach to research in industrial and organisational (I/O) psychology was oriented towards quantitative techniques as a result of influences from the social sciences. As the focus of I/O psychology expands from psychological test development to other personnel functions, there has been an inclusion of qualitative methods in I/O psychology practice. The present compilation, Handbook of Research Methods in Human Resource Management, therefore examines how qualitative methods like observation, interviews, ethnography, focus group discussion, nominal group technique, Delphi method, and projective techniques can be used in human resources studies. It is believed that knowledge gained on the applications of these qualitative methods would enhance understanding of workers behaviours in organisations and facilitate management decisions. Empirical studies are also presented, on how these qualitative methods have successfully been used in organisations. This handbook is intended to provide a practical information to managers and policy makers, to enable them to recognise and initiate measures that will make the workplace experience a more pleasant one for workers, and so weaken employees intent to leave.
