Assignment Taken

Develop a Hiring & Incentive strategy for Human resources working on international expansion to enable a speedy growth.

Case Understanding

Mr. Ramalingam Venkatesh founded Ramalingam Foods in south Bombay in 1965, and it is known for its freshly cooked south Indian meals and filter coffee. The business is now trying to expand globally. As a result, they face a number of issues in this regard, including: 1) Employees may lack knowledge of the items supplied. 2)In a new international location, employees may struggle to comprehend the culture and tastes of the locals. 3)Hiring new personnel for a new overseas location is tough, and the company will face challenges as a result of reasons such as poor or insufficient capital, cultural differences, and other considerations.

BCS Solution Summary

1)Training and understanding about the food goods or food items that the company will offer must be provided to the staff. 2)The newly hired personnel at the new international site should be instructed and motivated to learn about the country's local population's tastes and preferences. 3)Ramalingam Foods' management should work with both the HR department and the government of the country where it intends to expand to understand and learn about the compensation structure. 4)In the new location, Ramalingam Foods' HR department and management should examine the methods of other companies.

Solution

1) Development of Each and Every Person to Their Maximum Efficiency and Prosperity: According to this principle, each and every person's efficiency should be prioritised from the moment he is hired. It is necessary to organise everyone's training so that Ramalingam Foods staff are knowledgeable with the company's products and can explain them to clients.

2) Initiative: Ramalingam Foods' management and personnel must take the initiative to learn about local tastes and preferences of customers.

3) Coordination: This principle requires appropriate coordination not only among Ramalingam Foods' numerous departments, but also with local governments.

   HIRING STARATEGIES                                           IMPLEMENTATION

1) Deciding on the Best Sourcing Strategy and Channels

 

Varied countries have different success percentages for the same sourcing channel when it comes to locating good personnel. A successful sourcing strategy should take into account cultural variations. Ramalingam Foods should make use of internet employment portals, which are a good way to find the suitable people in the international market. 

2)Carrying out interviews in a professional manner 

The company must conduct research into the country's educational qualification levels as well as the quality of schooling. In other countries, the name of a qualification/course that covers a comparable syllabus or curriculum will be different. 

3)Comprehension of Cultural Differences 

When trying to recruit in a foreign country, it's also important to understand cultural differences and how they play out in the interview process. 

4)Understanding the Variations in Compensation

 

Before hiring, Ramalingam Foods should keep in mind that different countries have distinct currencies and pay cultures. Ramalingam Foods should be aware of the currency of the country for which the recruiting is being conducted, as well as how that currency relates to the currency in which the company keeps its budget and expenses. 

5)Maintaining compliance

Distinct nations have different statutory requirements for different job categories, such as minimum salary, social security, income tax, medical benefits, leave policy, working hours, offer letter, appointment letter, notice periods, and so on, so the company must follow the rules.
