HR Management of TNCs (on the basis of SC “Kuehne+Nagel”)

Abstract

Human Resources (HR) has evolved from a simply administrative function towards a more professional, consultative, and strategic partner during the previous two decades. Previously, HR was largely responsible for managing employee personal documents, benefits, and payroll functions, as well as other operational tasks. This position has evolved in recent years, with HR becoming a key role in business strategies. Nowadays HR’s main responsibility is to ensure that employees are encouraged and devoted to their jobs and responsibilities as well as committed to their organizations’ vision, mission and goals. This role becomes more challenging for HR in Transnational corporations (TNCs further).
