Employment regulations and laws differ from country to country. When your company decides to expand operations it is imperative that you determine the Human Resource requirements before you set up your new office. Start by taking inventory of your corporation’s strengths and weaknesses in the country (or countries) you will be expanding into. With that assessment in hand, you will be better equipped to establish detailed staffing and workload plans.
 
To perform a strategic analysis of your HR needs, you first have to collect data about the countries you are moving into. You will need to know about regulations, labor markets, training organizations, and country-specific HR risks. You will also need data specific to your business; staffing requirements, skill sets, strategic skills, etc. You’ll need to determine if the company has: 

• The requisite skills required for the new geographies
  
• Employees ready to work abroad
  
• Employees who speak the language(s)
  
• Plans to mitigate HR risks
  
• Prepared to enforce country-specific business regulations
  
• Etc.
