An Insight into Global Perspectives on Human Resources Management Practices for Immigrants and Refugees
Abstract
According to new data obtained from the United Nations, the number of international immigrants have reached to the number of 244 million in 2015. Nearly 4 out of 100 people in the world live in foreign countries instead of living in countries where they were born. Among these people, 10 per cent are refugees. These 20 million people have been forced to live abroad depending on political and other reasons. All these people try to have a life standard worthy of human dignity. At this point, human resources management practices of host countries should provide “decent work” which is firstly introduced by International Labour Organization as a concept. In this chapter, while adapting immigrants and refugees to the business life of host countries, it has been searched which human resources management practices are used by companies and how. Among these practices it has been remarked that, practices like human resources planning, personnel recruitment and selection, training and development of employees, career management and planning, performance appraisal, compensation, job security and worker safety issues gain importance.
