2014
| An analyses which will allow Haelec Management Team to implement an expansion programme in terms of establishing HR Policies abroad. | Jason Clark |

1.0 Introduction
Since 1990, Haelec Products Ltd has grown from strength to strength in the production and manufacturing of various products including its latest creation of the Wireless Atomic Weather Station (WAWS). The demand for this product from Institutions and Governments had lead the need for the company to look into manufacturing the product overseas to be able to keep up with demand.
This increased demand has main came from countries in and around the Indian Ocean and South China Sea, so it would seem beneficial to look into these countries for the consideration of setting up a production facility there. The countries that should be looked at include:-
Indonesia
India
China
These countries make up 70% of the orders from the area, so it would make sense to set the production facility in one of these countries.
At present moment the current HR Policies and Procedure have worked extremely well for the company. However, these policy and procedures are very much tailored to the UK market and when a company is looked to expand abroad it might not all be suitable to implement the same policies into the country that you are moving to.
Therefore, this report looks at the various aspects a company needs to look at when considering moving to another country. As well as that, this report looks at the culture differences for each country and the difficulties with managing people internationally. The report will also provide information on whether a ‘Best Fit’ or ‘Best Practice’ should be taken when looking at the following HR activities:-
Human Resource Planning (HRP)
Recruitment and Selection (R&S)
Reward Systems (RS)
