Introduction
Human resource management refers to the management or administration of the employees within an organization, and it is influenced by institutional affiliations and cultural norms. A human resource management practice differs based on the national culture of a country, and the practice functions differently around the world. Each country's philosophy of human resource management differs from its practice in the rest of the world.
Human resource management in the international context refers to employing and developing people in an international organization (Schwab, 2010, September). Global human resource management refers to managing people around the world.. Managing human resources across cultures and across countries is a core function of the management of international companies. The different countries apply several human resources management principles to their value chain activities of their country organizations in order to increase their human resources management business practices (Schwab, 2010, September).
Canada's human resources management principles are good in that they fit into the organization that is being controlled and managed by my group. In order to improve on the human resource management principle between the two parties, payment systems should be more efficient and effective with the other countries globally.
Human resource management involves the employees in an organization or the management of the workers. The human resource management depends on the institutional affiliation and the cultural framework. The international human resource management therefore means the process of employing and developing people in the international organization. There are several principles that are used of the human resources management that are used by the different countries to increase their human resource management business practice in their value chain activities of the country organizations.

Recruitment process
In a non-union workplace within Canada, there are several types of legislation governing the recruitment process. Legislations that are related to employment equity include laws governing the Constitution, labor laws, human rights laws, etc. Human rights commissions in Canada support the creation of programs and policies that relate to employment equity. Permission is required from the legislation in order to provide consulting and education services.
(Schwab & Sala-i-Martin, 2011) say that employment equity promotes the recruitment of excellent employees that may otherwise be avoided. A diverse workforce is more able to offer employers skills, talents, and innovation (Schwab & Sala-i-Martin, 2011, September).
Despite the small impact the law has on recruitment practices, it plays a significant role in selection processes by affecting what employers may be looking for. As a result of the selection of the right candidates, the human resource management is able to help new recruits become more productive members of the organization.
There are major types of the legislation that affects the recruitment process in a non – unionized workplace within Canada. The employment equity helps the recruitment process to attract and keep the excellent employees who may be avoided. The employment equity provides the employers with talents, skills and the innovation that workforce that is more diverse can offer. The law implemented on the recruitment practice they have the little impact but they take part in the selection practices through the practice of affecting what the employer may be looking for.

Payment system
Canada uses a wide variety of payment instruments to fund its purchases of goods and services, its financial investments, as well as the process of transferring money between individuals. In addition to using cash, credit and debit cards, and e-money, the human resource management uses a variety of other payment instruments.
As part of the payment system, there are the instruments, procedures, technical arrangements, and rules used for transferring funds. Payments are processed in two steps, which include clearing and settlement (Schwab & Sala-i-Martin, 2011). In the clearing process, payment orders that have not yet been settled are transmitted, confirmed, and reconciled. Settlement represents the process of releasing payment obligations between two or more parties by transferring funds between them (Schwab & Sala-i-Martin, 2011, September).
Besides the large value transfer system, the province of Canada also utilizes an automated settlement system. In addition to the outside payments between the two parties in that country, the international payment includes payments into and out of that country as well as payments from outside that country in that currency.
Canada uses various payment instruments for the purpose of purchasing goods and services in making the financial investments and in the process of transferring from one person to the another. The payment system refers to the set of instruments, procedure, technical arrangements and the rules used in the transferring of these funds. The process of settlement involves on the release of the payment obligations between the two or more parties by transferring on the funds between them. The two payment systems used in the Canada includes the large value transfer system and the automated clearing settlement system.

Labor relations
A comparison of human resource management principles between Canada and the US focuses on high performance work systems as the basis for comparison. Culture and nationality contribute to the experiences of human resource management. The justifications for divergence and convergence presuppose that the human resource management system must stay divergent. The technique disregards the possibility that some aspects of the human resource system are merging in other sectors (Schwab, 2018, November).
The variety of different local and national solutions to human resource challenges that are experienced in an organization should be considered while analyzing international human resource management principles on labor relations. The cost of human resources is a major issue in international human resource management. Most multinational organizations devote the majority of their resources to ensuring that employees understand why they may be the most cost-effective in an organization (Schwab, 2018, November).
Global networking is the most essential feature in international human resource management, and it is becoming increasingly crucial as a result of specified organizational changes (Schwab, 2018, November). The global network should be suggested for use in the organization's labor relations; it should decrease bureaucratic effects and serve as the most significant decision-making group.
The view of the human resource management principles for the organization in Canada emphasizes on the high performance work systems as the basis of the comparisons between the two countries. The cultural and the national difference which influence the experienced reality of the human resource management. The divergence and the convergence arguments assumes that the human resource management system has to remain divergent. Many international organizations they are making the substantial investments in getting things right. The physical and the cultural difference presents barriers in labor relation to the successful knowledge transfer among the human resource professionals. The global network should be recommended to be used in the labor relation of the organization and it should reduce the impacts of the bureaucracy and to act as the most important in the decision making groups.

Training and support
Selection, recruiting, and retention methods vary greatly from nation to country and culture to culture. In cultures with a high performance focus, selection and recruiting are centered on job technical abilities and associated knowledge. They favor the use of internal labor markets to encourage loyalty in collectivist civilizations. Training and assistance are necessary since newly hired employees find it challenging to integrate into the organization's strong social networks (Schwab, 2018, November).
Cultures with a high level of uncertainty avoidance employ more selection tests and perform more interviews. This demonstrates a strong willingness to gather objective facts in order to make a selection decision prior to training on international human resource management concepts analysis. Compensation and benefit plans are tailored to the many cultural contexts in which a business operates. Low avoidance cultures rely on individual performance based compensation, whereas avoidance cultures prefer skills based incentive schemes. Cultural differences have a significant impact on training and assistance (Schwab, 2018, November).
The fatalistic culture ignores the value of personal growth and training. To achieve a high degree of confidence and credibility, high power distance cultures use top management as teachers rather than external trainers. In the portfolio of management activities, human resource management is more essential. Globalization has aided the development of multinational human resource management.
Selection, recruitment and retention practices differs from one country to another across the different culture. The selection and the recruitment in cultures of the high performance orientation they are based on the job technical skills and the related knowledge. The collectivist cultures they prefer the use of the internal labor markets to promote on the loyalty. The fatalistic culture it does not recognize on the importance of the development and training. The high power distance cultures employ the senior managers instead of the external trainers as the instructors to ensure on the high level of trust and credibility.
