Every business concern employs staff fromdifferent cultural background and in accordance with that rules are framed. This can many atimes hurt the sentiments of employees as they many feel neglected.Hence to overcome this issue, it has been recommended that any organisation that isfunctioning at international level should consider cultural differences of employees and thenmake rules.
