International Human Resources Law - HRM333
This unit provides an understanding of the fundamental principles of International Human Resources Law. The unit is designed to emphasis international issues that emerge in human resource law. As human labour becomes more mobile, the implementation and jurisdictional rights of national laws regulating human resources law is challenged. Climate change, migration and expansion of capitalism into countries such as China, Saudi Arabia, South Pacific Islands and India has had an impact on current labour law protection. Corporations and businesses now have the technology and freedom to hire their workforce from many different countries. This is problematic because there is often a disparity between the development of labour law protection, cultural sensitivity and human rights in some of these countries. An example of this is the laws regulating child labour, workplace safety standards and practices can vary enormously between different countries. This unit is designed to provide an international perspective about many legal and ethical issues emerging in labour law and its impact on our society.
