    The USA and Canada welcomes every year significant numbers of immigrant professionals who have high levels of formal education (Bachelors, Masters and Ph. D.) as well as extensive experience; yet a significant fraction of these immigrants are unemployed or underemployed. The purpose of this book is to help US and Canadian organizations make full use of the significant human capital that immigrants represent. This book will help organizations: .Modify their recruitment and selection process to avoid rejecting culturally different candidates for reasons that are not related to their ability to do the job .Develop and promote culturally diverse employees to ensure that they retain and capitalize on the new ideas that these employees bring Highly- practical the book is divided into two parts:- The first part focuses on the recruiting process. It takes readers through the recruiting process used by most organizations and examines why cultural differences can throw this process off . The discussion is framed by an introduction explaining what cultural differences are and a description of cross-cultural communication issues and suggested solutions. .The second part examines the retention and promotion of culturally different employees. The turnover of culturally different people is often higher than average and they are proportionately less represented in the higher echelons of large organizations. The work examines the root causes of these issues and proposes solutions that individuals and organizations can implement. * This book focuses on the impact of cultural difference in the workplace and the challenges that immigrants and their employers experience as a result * Practical case studies incorporated throughout the text * How to attract, nurture and keep a diverse talent pool

    Diversity in the workplace has made significant progress in United States companies. Unfortunately, much of the apparent progress has been at the surface level of diversity (Hiller Day, 2004), where readily visible characteristics identify people of varying genders, ages, ethnicity, and religions. What are needed are prescriptions, based on solid theory and research, that will allow the deep-level diversity to transform well intentioned affirmative action programs from their old reliance on surface-level diversity to a new reliance on deep-level diversity. It is our hope that this volume will stimulate the scholarly activity needed to make progress toward the above stated goal of making deep-level diversity the benchmark of human progress in the workplace.

    "A Theory of Employment Systems considers why there are such great international differences in the way employment relations are organized within the firm. Taking account of the growing evidence that international diversity persists despite 'globalization', it sets out from the theory of the firm first developed by Coase and Simon, and explains why firms and workers should use the employment relationship as the basis for their economic cooperation. The originality of the employment relationship lies in its flexibility. It gives managers the authority to organize work, but it also establishes limits on employees' obligations."--BOOK JACKET. "The nature of these limits is fundamental to our understanding of the employment relationship and its international diversity."--Jacket pt. I.A Theory of Employment Systems. 1. The Employment Relationship. 2. The Limits of Managerial Authority. 3. Diffusion and Predominance of Employment Rules. 4. Classification Rules and the Consolidation of Employment Systems -- pt. II. Evidence and Personnel Management Implications. 5. Societal Diversity of Employment Systems: Comparative Evidence. 6. Performance Management. 7. Pay and Incentives. 8. Skills and Labour Market Structure -- pt. III. Conclusions. 9. Employment Systems and the Theory of the Firm: Societal Diversity.
