Better management of top talent from overseas

In this special episode of The HR Leader Podcast, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Safeguard Global country manager for ANZ, Jonathan Perumal, about how best HR teams can manage their international workforces and stay on top of pertinent operational matters.

Perumal reflects on the “huge amount of risk” inherent in companies not effectively managing the hiring of workers inside and outside of Australia at a time when international recruitment is becoming more commonplace post-pandemic, the various challenges being experienced regarding compliance and payroll, and the practical ways that HR can be staying on top of these.

He also delves into what he sees as the evolving role of the HR function, the fundamental importance of cultural alignment for prospective candidates as opposed to skill sets, the questions that HR teams must be asking in order to source the best cross-border workforce, what works and doesn’t work when staying on top of so many urgent priorities, and having the right frameworks in place.
