INTRODUCTION
Human resource is the function of a company that works in managing the workforce of it
and works in increasing their performance. Its management is the maintaining of all the related
people of a company that can be its employees, consumers and spectators of the society.
International human resource management is basically the same process but on international
level by considering all the elements that have a impact on the related people of different parts of
the world. In this, the objectives of a company are considered and acquisition, utilisation and

markets (Hosanoo, Rughoobur-Seetah and Ramrekha, 2021). The human resource of different
countries also have their different perspectives, taste, preferences, culture, behaviour and several

evaluating certain issues relating to culture and HRM that a UK company can face and must
consider before expanding and establishing its call centre in Japan. For this, some advantages
and potential issues are used separately.
