Briefly explain main differences in context of employment law and practices that affect HRM.
Human resource management is highly influence formally and informally due to
employment laws that governs all aspects between relationship of superior and subordinate.

Collective bargaining refers to a procedure to negotiate the term between superior and group of
employees(Kollinger and Koris, 2021). In case of Germany, this agreement define certain
standards that is important to apply on in terms of income and employment. Whereas in UK, this
can reflect specific terms and conditions that allow negotiation in work duration and pay. This
agreement can be mage between employer and representative.

enhance their team management skill. Because these conference sharing knowledge about
effective group development.

Discuss process that can consider by board providing analysis in respect to employees.
It is the duty of employer to amend the employment contract of employee whenever a
person is shifted to another nation (Zaim and et.al., 2018). It includes time period of service for
avoiding any kind of disputes in future. This is important as it gives a security to worker that the
firm can not dismiss it with any unfair means.

Germany law prohibits discrimination between workers on basis of religion beliefs and it
also require paid 100 percent salary by their employer.

unions and also provide a notification in respect to workers representative and public
