Hrm Strategies on Lg

South Korea and the United States have different ideas on a lot of things. Looking into South Korea’s way of life puts a different perspective on how someone across the world lives their life a little differently than me, even though they could be in the same financial state. My research will look at the comparison of their family and social life, Government, Religion, education, economy and health care,and how it differs from the U.S. The U.S. Population is 318.9 million and South Korea’s 50.22 million. The life expectancy in South Korea is 81.37 years old, and The US doesn’t differ much with it being 78.74 years old. There is a lot less free time in South Korea with people working an average of 2071 hours and here an average of 1788 hours. The unemployment rate there is also a lot smaller than here with there being all kinds of jobs for any level of work experience. South Korea has gone through a great economic rise in the last 50 years going from one of the poorest countries to the fifteenth largest economies.

The history of HRM had its beginnings in the early 1800s in England. In the pre industrial era, the apprentice worked and lived in close proximity with the master craftsman who looked after his needs. During the Industrial Revolution in the 18th century, manufacturing underwent a sea change when machines were used in large factories to manufacture goods. Later, in the 19th century, Frederick W. Taylor propounded the theory of scientific management that studied workflows scientifically to improve economic efficiency and significantly improve labor productivity. Taylor recommended that the combination of scientific management and industrial psychology of workers. Taylor proposed that workers should be managed not only for

As mentioned, a key L.L. Bean response to their strengths and weaknesses was to provide a mixture of traditional and non-traditional rewards to the employees. In conjunction with base compensation, the organization provided performance-based bonuses, profit sharing, and healthcare benefits as forms of traditional rewards. These traditional awards are closely aligned to monetary awards since these benefits are commonly used and expected in today’s business environment. Although the effectiveness of monetary rewards is questionable, at minimum these rewards provide a direct reciprocity to the employee for their

“In order to develop required human resource competencies, organizational leaders need to align the selection, training, development, and removal of employees with the behavioral requirements of the desired change” (Spector, 2010, p. 102). Having a focus on training can be an important part of helping employees understand how their competitive environment is changing. Along with the importance of changing their behaviors.

The objective of any compensation system is to attract, motivate and retain good employees. The most common bases for pay used in most companies are; Seniority or Longevity Pay and Merit Pay. Seniority and Longevity reward employees with periodic additions to base pay according to employee’s length of service in performing their jobs. There are differences between these two pay systems. For example, seniority rewards employees’ for the amount of time working with the company. In contrast, longevity pay rewards employees who have reached pay grade and who are not likely to move up in the company. Merit pay rewards employees with incentive increases according to their job performance. Rewarding employees for their job performance will motivate them to keep performing at high level and will help employers retain its best employees to a successful company. Campbell soup uses both pay systems. Campbell Soup strives to keep their employee’s; they reward them according to their contributions and job performance giving to the company. For example, employees were rewarded for helping build Soupy Park made of recycled materials. Being a large manufacturer Campbell Soup has several components to its compensation program. These components are as follow; Base salary, performance- based annual incentive compensation, long term equity incentive compensation, pension and

I felt the HR Simulation for HRM 425 is designed to help the individual make decisions that would happen in a real business. Mr. Propster made the simulation to be group work and I worked with six other class members. The group has to design a mission and vision statement for a battery company. Then our group had to elect a chief executive officer, who had the task of entering the decisions into the simulation with the help of the group members and I thought it was like having a real manager. I believe this simulation is a very good tool for students to gain experience in corporate decisions; as we made decisions the simulation gives us feedback on how those decisions affect the business. There were situation where we thought a decision would fix a problem but would affect some other part of the simulation; for example, the employee’s morale would decrease and that would also affect productivity.

Armstrong (2012) affirms that definitions of total rewards characteristically includes not only traditional, quantifiable elements such as salary, variable pay and benefits but comprises also more intangible non-cash components such as gaining knowledge, ability to acquire and act or take responsibility, progress in career, and the conducive environment provided by the organization. SZT Corp requires a pretty complex and flexible total rewards program to meet the needs of their multi-national colleagues. The total rewards programs has to slightly vary for each country that SZT Corp operates in and must cover compensation, benefits, performance and recognition, learning and development, and a work-life balance. SZT Corp has to maintain a total rewards program that remains competitive with the competitors in the different nations all over the world.

South Korea has faced a dramatic change of multiculturalism brought by globalization. An influx of different races and ethnicities from all over the world has changed dynamics of race and ethnicity in South Korea. From nation-state with homogenous ethnicity, South Korea is now transforming into racially, ethnically diversified society. According to Korea government, as of 2015, the number of foreign residents in South Korea exceeded 1.5 million, which means three out of one hundred in population of Korean are foreigners. Particularly, the number of immigrant workers from China and South-East Asia (Indonesia, the Philippines, India, Nepal, etc.) is increasing due to economic development of South Korea, supplying cheap labor to the labor-starved service industry (Seol & Skrentny, 2009).

In working with a diversified, global workforce, human resource managers have a highly integrated and important function in the globalized company. For this, they need certain competences, including flexibility, decisiveness, leadership, team work, communication, strategic planning, network building, and so on (Czenter, 2002, p. 74). As such, human resource professionals and managers will need to be familiar with the most up to date communication techniques as well as engage in continuous learning to ensure that they update all relevant information in a timely way. Of course the most important task of human
