Brexit is looming, the Trump administration is two years into
governing the US, and elections all over the world are seeing a
surge in support for protectionist, domestically-driven politics.
With this lurch away from globalisation impacting so much of our
world, it can be easy to overlook the impact it's having on
human resources in the workplace - but that impact is real.
Governments across the globe are introducing more regulation to
safeguard their own economies, and border controls are getting
stricter. For those who work in global HR, it's a challenge to
keep pace. Each new regulation, each new amendment to existing
rules, each new visa class and movement exclusion, means that HR
administrators must get on top of things and ensure their own
company's policies and regulations remain compliant.
