Discussion Post: Global Standard
With the advent of technology like email and video conferencing, the world has become very small. Global companies are not a new thing, but their employees' ability to converse and interact has increased a thousand fold. And that's a great thing! It also means that HR departments are getting more and more experience working within the labor laws and regulations of other countries and cultures.
