Challenges faced by HRM after Globalization:

1) Globalization:
Globalization refers to the amalgamation of economics and societies
around the world which means that world trade and financial markets are
becoming more integrated. Growing internationalization of business has its impact
on HRM in terms of problems of unfamiliar laws, languages, practices,
competitions, attitudes, management styles, work ethics etc (Srivastava &
Agarwal). Globalization has an effect on employment patterns worldwide. It has
contributed to a great deal of outsourcing which is one of the greatest
organizational and industry structure shifts that change the way business operates.
2) Changed Employee Expectations
Nowadays, employees demand empowerment and expect equality with the
management. Krafft and Mahtrala (2010), states that it is only through true
empowerment that staff will really contribute to the changing needs of a business,
since they will then be doing things because they understand them and for the right
reasons, thinking and reflecting on the changes and their likely impact, and above
all feeling at ease with the implementation of change.
3) Outsourcing HR Activities
The trends towards outsourcing have been caused by several strategic and
operational motives. Outsourcing has also been used to help reduce bureaucracy
and to encourage a more responsive culture by introducing external market forces
into the firm through the biding process. It is a big challenge before the HR
manager to prove that his/her department is as important as any other functions in
the organization.
4) Work Diversity :
Diversity within HRM, termed as workforce diversity, is a multifaceted
phenomenon that can be defined as any visible or invisible difference between
organisational members. Diversity can be labelled into two distinct aspects:
observable differences (e.g. nationality, age) and underlying differences (e.g.
values, sexual orientation). Workforce diversity becomes a particular issue in
HRM as it has legal, moral and business implications for an organization.
5) New technology:
Technological advances have a significant impact on HR business
practices. Due to the advancements in the technology there has been a drastic
change in the approach to the various projects and the scenarios that guide to the
organizational regulations.

Challenges faced by HRM in future:

1) Work place flexibility:
It is expected to be on the rise as the future workplace also
known as the virtual office is characterized by creative and flexible work
arrangements. As more employees tend to work off-site, there will be an increase
in emphasis on performance and results as opposed to the number of hours worked
2) Technological Developments:
While organizations are growing in term of size, complexities
and automation (computerization), it is important to examine:
How technological development affects the specification of jobs in terms of
different requirements of education skill required and organizational structure
performance control.
3) Changes in the Socio-Cultural expectations of the work force:
These include changes in the compositions of work force in
terms of their education, social background, and roots in urban setting and
exposure to larger democratic culture of our country, all of which bring about
changes in their expectations, attitudes and value-orientations which have bearing
on the approaches to Human Resources Management.

Conclusion:
 The globalization is a HRM challenge
 HRM function has to make its policy, procedure & process to work on the
global level.
 The globalization has a huge impact on the HRM function & it is usually not
ready to take more responsibility in the movement of workforce around the
globe.
